from my window....the cardianls are especially beautiful...Mocha sits for hours by the window and watches them....
Die Voegel haben sich heute besonders haeufig Futter geholt.....Mocha sitzt stundenlang auf ihrem Posten am Fenster und beobachtet das emsige Treiben....Die Kardinalvoegelmaennchen sind auffaellig rot , dagegen wirken die Weibchen, mit ihren roten Schnaebeln, viel unscheinbarer.

President Obama declares Missouri counties federal disasters
This is directly from the KFVS12 website.
By: Heartland News & AP
CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (KFVS) Twenty Missouri counties will be eligible for public assistance now that the state has been issued a major disaster declaration.
The declaration, announced Tuesday, was the result of a severe ice storm Jan. 26-27 in southern Missouri.
The affected counties include Bollinger, Butler, Cape Girardeau, Carter, Dunklin, Howell, Madison, Mississippi, New Madrid, Oregon, Ozark, Pemiscot, Reynolds, Ripley, Scott, Shannon, Stoddard, Stone, Taney and Wayne.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - A request by Gov. Jay Nixon for a major disaster declaration for parts of southern Missouri hit by last month's winter storms was granted today by President Barack Obama. The declaration paves the way for counties and local entities affected by the storms to seek millions of dollars in federal funds for disaster-related costs.
The President's declaration will assist 20 counties in recovering from the damage caused by this major storm. Those counties are Bollinger, Butler, Cape Girardeau, Carter, Dunklin, Howell, Madison, Mississippi, New Madrid, Oregon, Ozark, Pemiscot, Reynolds, Ripley, Scott, Shannon, Stoddard, Stone, Taney, and Wayne.
On Jan. 30, President Obama granted Missouri an emergency disaster declaration in response to Gov. Nixon's request, allowing the state to receive federal assistance to pay its costs related to the storm. Today's declaration of a major disaster by the President entitles counties and local entities to receive this same federal assistance.
Assessments by the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) and its federal counterpart, FEMA, for damages sustained by counties, municipalities, electric cooperatives and municipal utilities have been determined to be in excess of $193 million.

Winter in PB
Email update from KFVS12....
Good afternoon. Here's the latest power outage numbers in the Heartland. In southeast Missouri, 30,000 are still in the dark. About 45,000 are still without power in western Kentucky. Only 2000 are still without power in southern Illinois.
Ice and Snow
Minnie is going to her nephew's house because she had no electricity for several days. ( He picked her up from my house ..... her hill was impassable and there were power lines in her street)
Minnie hat keinen Strom und wird deshalb von ihrem Neffen bei mir abgeholt. Ihre Strasse ist nicht befahrbar wegen gerissener Stromleitungen.
