This 'N That

Something tried to get in the pen Wednesday night- a layer of chicken wire was torn off the bottom of the closed gate. Couldn't see any tracks because the ground is frozen. Maybe a raccoon? Good thing the coop is locked at night! Nothing was messed up in the pen, so whatever it was, didn't get in.

 I don't know what they are pecking at - all the grass is dead:

 

 

A little bird nest in the forsythia bushes:

 Charlie's frostbite:

 Damn deer are at it again:

 Took our garbage to the re-cycle center. (just can't stand the excitement) The white steeple really stood out against the blue sky:

 One of the many abandoned barns along the way:

 In seven or eight months from now, the corn in those fields will be so high you won't be able to see those silos in the distance!
