We had a wee bit of snow the other day....

                                                            ... it didn't amount to much, but it sure was pretty!

Still dark outside:





Our road after the plow went through:
 

 Getting ready to feed the gang:


 The pine tree next to the driveway:


 Critter footprints - couldn't tell what made them:


 The berry bush:


 Almost looks like a Christmas card:


 Just snow on the rock wall:



Betty and Wilma really didn't want to go out in it - they had never seen so much white stuff!
 

I love the sound of the geese as they fly by! These stay year-round:


It warmed up and most of it was gone by the afternoon!

:o)

  1. Looks like what we got up here in the NW corner of the nation.
    More forcast by Thursday, but for now it's just cold!

    12 above when I went to bed, 14 when I got up this a.m.
    High yesterday was 26, forcast says 18 high today...

  3. The OLD Boy Scout manuals used to have a good section on animal tracks. The new ones probably just teach you how to play kick-the-can and be "inclusive" with your circle of friends.

    1. Funny you should mention the manual, Gorges. I have the Boyscout Field-book sitting right here at my desk! It's an old edition, too - all the pictures and drawings are in black and white! :o)

    1. Thanks Granny! I love being the first one outside and hearing the crunchy sound under my footsteps. Had some more overnight, but it didn't last all day. :o(
