They return and bloom the following year too. <BR/>Chick-a-dees are quick little ones...I love the zoom...makes the birds come right into the livingroom.<BR/>Birds and blooms in January are the best!

They need the cold to renew for spring of 2010. You will get spring in your window early this year.

I love these liitle flowers, but they get lost outside. Now when they bloom you will really be able to enjoy them. <BR/><BR/>I think you are doing great with the bird photos! Don't you love having the feeder where you can see the birds come and eat?
