Re: Harsh Winter Ahead?

The theory was that berries fatten up the birds ready to face the winter. So a lot of berries was just nature 'forward planning' to get the birds really fat to face a bad winter.

Nothing logical there.

Last winter we had the worst snow for several years here, in the deep south - nearly 5 mm one day, and it laid for several hours!
