Snowy, snowy day!

Well, Saturday was a fun day. I'll tell you all about it once I curate the photos. We had so much fun with the kids visiting, finally. 

Rabbit has been busy in the backyard. I love spotting their tracks in the snow. It's such a fun track, with their long back legs.

 We had a big snowstorm on Friday. What a mess. It snowed and snowed, with blowing winds. At one point it was so dark that the bears lit themselves up. They are on a timer that does this once it gets to dusk!


I tried for another window photo. Lots of snow!

The cats keep watching their cat TV. Those squirrels, we've three red squirrels!


I tried for video out front, but set it improperly, again. I had a series of 681 photos of this deer! 



I love watching them! mice friends   


The snow kept falling. We had a robin, as well as the cardinals and many chickadees.

It's more than gently falling, the snow.

I did the driveway, just before the storm ended, it snowed much of the day. We had about 11 cm, and it was a challenge.

Hello Jenn, : Wow! Piles of snow everywhere, but in spite of the cold and the wind you have many visiting birds. Cute photo of your two kitties looking out of the window, I wonder what they are thinking! I like your bears, and what a fun way of lighting up outside. The little mouse had a good scamper around, but it didn't look as though it found anything to eat. The winter deer also have a hard time, but it's great to get them on camera, and know they visit you at night when they feel safe.
All the best.

I could watch the birds all day on your CaTV. As long as I was inside warm and not outside with the blower. You are invincible.

That's heavy snow, and the birds perching on whatever little twig they can find, as always, the beautiful Red Cardinal stands out, but all the others have their place too. I am guessing you have double or triple glazed windows? Down here, all new homes built have to have double glazing, and in older homes, if a window needs to be replaced, and is a lower height from the floor, they do as well.It makes a huge difference.

A Robin!! I know how tiring it can be to move all that snow:(

That snow doesn't seem to trouble you too much. I'm afraid that I would have to hibernate for a week or two face with so much snow and dark days.

Gotta love cat tv. We seem to have the Sparrow Channel. I wouldn't mind a little variety but there you have it!

Rarely a night goes by without rabbits leaving fresh tracks in the snow in the backyard - and lots of other evidence too! By now Great Horned Owl often have young, or eggs are close to hatching, so these rabbits had better be careful!
