It's December!

While we had snow, a couple of times, it has melted. I would prefer a nice protective cover of snow for the critters and plants. Instead, the temperatures have been up and down. Over the past week, I've been decorating for fun.
Usually, I buy potted up greenery planters, instead, I took a walk in the forest and plucked some pine and cedar branches. Daisy helped. Can you see her in the 2nd photo?! She was reluctant to come up. This is a new tree that has fallen. Happy girl.



 I found that most of the thick pine branches are at the top, where the sun shines. You can buy branches, but I found enough that it is green.



The tree was a challenge. It's on a timer that goes on at dusk and stays lit for 4 hours.


The water fountain looks better with lights. It's a large, dark backyard. The turtle helmet is on top, weighing down the plastic. I can see the lights from my bedroom, while reading in bed. It's lovely!


  The birds have been busy.
