Last week, we endured a (hopefully) once in a lifetime winter weather event for our area that put us to the test like never before. Many precautions were taken and preparations put forth ahead of the impending weather and I am happy to say that all is well here at Pinola. Undoubtedly, we dodged a major bullet and we are grateful for our good fortune. One good byproduct of all of this is the opportunity to take pictures of our birds with a beautiful backdrop. Enjoy!
