Yesterday was glorious. We made it up to 15 C.! Big mistake last night, though. I cleaned the birdbath heater and neglected to put it back in the birdbath. It was - 5 C. this morning. It's going to thaw, and no harm done. Whew.
Can you see the chickadee coming in for a landing?
The girls had a nice walk in the forest📹.
Playtime! It is difficult, somedays, getting kids outdoors. Not this week. It was fun. MVI_0075
The raccoons have a pecking order. Food fight
Off in the forest, the porcupine has been active. I've moved this trailcam back to the frogpond path. With the wetland thawing, their trails are limited and funnels them along here. This is the first sighting this year. porcupine.m4v

Here, in LGL, they don't update the website weekends, but the media do. Ottawa is going back into red lockdown, as are we. We did our part by ordering in dinner last night. Our local restaurants seem to be doing OK with take out.
