It has been snowing all day. It is also very windy – my snow meter is only showing a 0.5 cm increase in snow cover so the snow is blowing off in some places while piling up elsewhere. This will make a serious dent in my weather statistics! But statistics aside, I have thoroughly enjoyed…

I know I’ve posted a lot of squirrel images lately but at least I hope that they are improving…

I just learned that the constellation of Cygnus, or Swan, is sometimes also called the Northern Cross. Fair enough. Light on the trees was provided courtesy of an almost full moon.

There were two individuals, but it was impossible to get them in the same frame. So the above picture is a composite, two OOF frames with motion blur with the stump as an anchor to tie them together. Either that, or delete…

Now that winter is approaching, I have filled up my bird feeders to help out the little ones. There is already a lot of traffic and I have a first row seat from my living room window. Yesterday I was very happy to see the first crested tit to come for a visit, I have…
