A Bit Of Snow

Just a bit of snow so far. But, snow squalls are predicted for this afternoon,
with a 5-6 inch accumulation of the white stuff!
 
EDIT - We woke up to 14 inches of snow this morning (Sunday)
Female House Finch


Grey Squirrel (Patches)

  3. Just one request, Karen... please keep the snow up there. I'm not ready for it yet! We still have trees with their leaves. Cute squirrel, but I still don't like them.

  7. Patches! What a great name for this one. Poor little house finch--wonder how small birds like that can withstand the snow. They survive though! Great shots!

  9. Excellent images of all your feathered and furry friends!
    We just received some of the that arctic front cold from up your way overnight. 8 degrees this morn, but only an inch of snow so we're counting our blessings :)

  10. Beautiful photos, Patches looked as though he was posing just for you, and how do the little birds survive through all the snow? Guess, like you, they hunker down in some warm sheltered spot Greetings from Jean

  17. I can't get my head around five to six inches of snow. But would much, much rather snow than heat.
    Have a great weekend.

  20. Amazing shots. But what draws me in the most, are the little specs of snow in the background. FULL of atmosphere. Great!
