It's Cottonwood season! It was like it snowed at Whistler Woods. Anne even made a "snow" ball from the cottonwood seeds. They don't work as well as real snow balls. We always hear so many songbirds at Whistler. It's great practice for identifying birds by song (for Ari. Ima cannot ID any song but Red-winged Blackbirds and American Robins).

| It then yelled... |
