This post could basically speak for itself...
( but I'm feeling wordy ;0....) 14+ inches of snow greeted us this morning.

a familiar site as one looks outside....a neighbor clearing his sidewalk.

..even the pooch wants to get out in this weather...at 12 he still loves to romp and eat that snow!!

obviously, one of the reasons to go out was to feed the birds!! They seem to flutter onto the surrounding trees after I turn on the lights in the early morn...do they really know my routine that well...
hmmm.. who has who conditioned??

a little junco...just waiting his turn...such a sweet bird...

I hear this nuthatch before I see him...

the titmouse giving me the glare..guess he didn't like his picture being taken...

..one of my super
favs...love to hear them call to each other during these winter months. We are lucky to have a pair of Carolina Wrens visit us each day!

our over night guest..

my little red birdhouse refuge...and this downy has taken up residence in it....sleeping here overnight for the last several weeks..keeping warm during these snowy times...

..its a nice visit from ole man winter but upon coming in...there's such a nice greeting of these paper whites, which just opened the other day!!

...
hmmm such a nice fresh smell..
