We had snow!

 Monday morning is garbage day. One of my Monday morning joys. Happily, I don't have to get dressed up and put on my face, like the olden days. Then drive into work. 

Out I went for 7 a.m. The photos were taken with the videocamera, which isn't great, but lighter to carry in my pocket. 

The latest storm dropped about a cm, and I enjoy the snow. I know not all people do. I like reading the stories in the snow. Overnight, in the dark of the night, we had visitors. A bunny, big coyotes, and smaller fox. Maybe.

bunny (or squirrel!)

You can see the size difference.


Here is my November precipitation total.


After all this, the trailcams revealed my night friends. A new coyote, with a very sore leg. This poor one has a sore leg.

I was in my chair, relaxing, when I heard a noise overhead, Nov. 28, 2021! It was low, deep and strong. Going to Flight Radar, I figured it out. One of those huge Hercules!

Totally fun to guess the tracks. Linda in Kansas

Poor fellow. It doesn't look good.
No more snow here. Dull as dishwater around and about. Our road is slippery as all get out though.
We get lots of Hercules aircraft overhead. They come over the hill right behind us, seems like just skimming it. We are under the direct flyway between Trenton and Petawawa so it's a regular thing.
When we lived close to the air base in Ottawa it was kind of fun to listen to the incoming aircraft and try to identify what was what based on the sound.

It looks like you got about the same amount as we did! I'm not ready but they didn't ask me!

Fun to see those tracks in the snow. Poor coyote, hope he is a fast healer.
