This photo was taken back in January, but we’ve still got snow outside! We tend to only get snow for a few days a year here, but we’ve now had snow on and off since December. I can’t remember a week where we haven’t had some snow!
The garden is quite at the moment, despite the nuts & fat balls hanging from the bird table.
Nevermind.
I might go for a walk later and see what other critters I can capture with my camera.

Hey sweetie – look at that cute little birdie
We have gained another two inches of snow this weekend – made life interesting…..but we’re bored with snow now…….
At least the snowdrops are coming out and the daffy’s are fighting back

Don’t they have the perfect coloring to look like the snowflakes landed on him and stayed? ![]()

Mean and loud birds. I just posted about them this morning. They have come to my feeder and scared everyone else away. I don’t like them very much!
This has been a hard winter. I feel like we are living in the freezer, that needs to be defrosted. There has been constant snow on the ground for weeks. Finally yesterday, after almost 3 weeks I think, we hit about 32 degrees.
I went out in my sweatshirt – it was glorious!

Beautiful capture!
We have had a snowy winter here as well, but back “home” in Seattle, my mother reports that the cherry blossoms are gorgeous and so are her spring flowers in the garden.

Lovely shot. You feed the birds fat balls? What about cholesterol levels? Not worried about their diets?
