It's warm!

It's been a peculiar few days. Freezing, freezing cold, around -24 C., (about -10 F.) ! Nothing exciting on the trailcam for a few days. Last night there was 10 cm of snow, which was a surprise, but the 'warm-up' is wonderful.

I've busted my bird bath. I'm so sad. I think I know what I did, a lesson for next year. <sigh> It's cracked right around the rim, perhaps underneath, as well. You can see the massive ice build-up.

 It's funny seeing the little tracks around in the snow. The critters (voles, dratted red squirrels, and other rodents) have dug holes, reducing the amount of time they are above ground.

Then, just to rub it in, I keep seeing this ad in my web pages. I had my trip, Trip to the Dominican Republic, we're all done!

We've had a couple of bucks, a total of 12 deer yesterday. Then, 10 turkeys on a daily basis.

Then, suddenly, in subzero temperatures, the coyote popped up near the deer feeders, scavenging for crumbs. They've been well-fed, as there was deer roadkill on the highway. They've had a good feed. Sadly, the trailcam (#1) doesn't do a great job, but I like knowing who goes there in the night.
