When I was growing up, the only time we saw armadillos was when we got down around south Miss and south Louisiana. Now I think they're all the way up in TN or somewhere like that.. Yep. About 18-20 years ago we saw one in our yard and it was an oddity. My dh had never seen one up close. Now they’re everywhere up here in tn. I grew up in Florida so they were normal to me but seeing them in tn is still strange. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And actually, we didn’t have bluebirds at our feeder (though they lived in the fields) until maybe 3-4 winters ago and now we have them year round. We used to have nesting woodpeckers but I haven’t seen many the last couple years. We used to get lots (several varieties). I miss them and hope it’s just a fluke they’ve not been in our yard as frequently. We still have a bunch of woodpeckers around. I don't remember if they are usually here in the winter or not. Downys, Pileated, Red Bellied, Red Headed are all still around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep an eye out! 🤣☹️ So, it looks like I’m bringing the cold, but no precipitation. Sorry/not sorry! I can’t speak for the southern climate, but I’m working on the 5-yr update of our hazard mitigation plan up here and the consulting firm’s data shows an outlook for continued reduction of freeze days, but with colder temperatures. That is a valid explanation for less snow overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
