Well, it's a tad chilly this morning! They are predicting a big storm for us for Monday. We've got gas in the snowblower, since they predict 30 - 40 cm (about a foot). It should begin tonight. I may or may not get the garbage out Monday morning. Sadly the kids are going back to school Monday, and they are predicting quite a bit of snow. It is far better than rain. Our flora and fauna need the snow cover in these temperatures.
I hope people stay safe and warm. We had power outages yesterday in Ontario. Could just be the cold.
Bird watching has been fun. It's the small things we can take pleasure in to keep us going.
I love these birds. We had 15 or so goldfinches in their winter colours. I missed this photo a few days ago, trying to be succinct (yes, not really good at that...), and noticed the one at the back was feeding the other. Spring is coming! Soon we'll have nests and babies!
I changed up the feeders and the cardinal prefers the tray feeder. It has a cover to prevent most of the precipitation on it. I managed a photo of the two of them in the chestnut tree (male and female) and they are a bright spot in my days.
My orchid is beginning to create another stem! Yippee!
I managed a photo of our bunnies in the dark.
Cinnamon insisted on going outdoors. Crazy cat. It warmed up to -20 for him in the sunshine. What a boy! He's been sleeping curled up beside me, his head on my arm. It is cozy.

JB has been busy. I do the heavy stuff, he still has issues with his rotator cuff, his arm is bad, but he can do dishes and clean up. He cleaned the stove. Then I made spaghetti sauce... Me bad. It is good to keep him busy! I've had the dropsies lately.
The trailcams have been critterless! They are wisely hunkering down in this cold. The fisher came by, marking his presence. I haven't seen one in ages. I bet food is getting scarce.
