I have been inspired by many of your bird blips, so I dug out a bird feeder, bought some seed, and put it in the reach of any hungry bird. It's a very dismal day, so they are probably all still tucked in wherever birds tuck in.
We live upstairs above the garage, so the feeder is practically in the treetops.

As for wildlife: in the last week I have seen one coyote that was cruising across a snow covered hay field, two moose that were on their knees munching some old grass from last year, many eagles perched on the tops of spruce trees, undoubtedly on the lookout for an unsuspecting rabbit, and one eagle who was feeding on a dead moose that was lying in a ditch by the road.

A lynx was hanging out on a friend's porch. It is extremely rare to see a lynx anywhere, much less near a house.

A man and his family were attacked, but not injured, by a brown bear. The man fought it off with his tripod, stabbing at its mouth and face, and fortunately the bear changed his mind and ambled off. Keep this in mind the next time you think, "Oh, I really don't want to carry this tripod..."
