Saturday in December

I hadn't noticed these cool little "hanging" birds nests before but now it seems like they are everywhere. There's one in just about every tall tree. They're usually pretty high up so I zoomed in on this one just to see what it looked like. No idea what kind of birds build these but it must take them weeks. Something else I really wanted to get a photo of before it was gone was some greenery against the snow. It's pretty amazing that anything can stay green this far into December. I think I read or heard somewhere that Robins have adapted to eating seeds in the winter and can stay in Minnesota all year. Not sure if this is the case with all or just some of them but here's one that's decided to tough it out.
