Snow Day


Just as predicted, the snow came...
Huge wet snowflakes, that magically transformed the earth, now blanketed and white.

Yesterday I noticed how many birds had reappeared from their Winter nests, chirping and busying themselves about the landscape, the milder weather had stirred their little feathered souls.

Today, they are silenced once again.

Beautiful... absolutely beautiful! The snow makes everything so pretty, doesn't it? Your birds must not be used to snow... ours chirp regardless the weather. :-) The ones that stick around, that is. Some go south until this nasty weather up here in Indiana subsides. Some people do too!

That looks so pretty and yes they'll be back. I may be a bad girl but I keep hoping for a good snow. Everything we have had so far this winter has been very light and has disappeared quickly. And yet I hasten to add I don't want carmageddon as they call it on the news, when it took Gregg 12 hours to get home with only a four mile journey and didn't reach home until one o'clock in the morning. No, no, don't want that, but a nice 'safe' snow would be lovely! Have a great weekend Jo!

Oh, it's so pretty! Just a dusting here in Nashville. But it is so cold that we take seed out 3 times a day now.

Birds huddle under the branches when it's cold and windy, but they still need to eat. It's wonderful to know that so many of us have bird feeders to help them out during the winter months. :-)
