                   All kinds of birds and critters hang out in our yard . We live in a valley and have forest all around and a river running through and are lucky to have all this beautiful nature right out our door !

       Yesterdays warm temps melted  some of the snow and formed a dewy fog and  it had froze over night creating a  hoarfrost !

  The Eastern Blue birds have returned as have the Robins .The purple / pink back ground  in some of  these  photos  is  caused by the sun rise reflecting in the damp atmosphere of  the sky .

A Mild Weekend

 

The temps here have been very mild  2ºC or 35ºF in the day , that is quite warm for us after all the frigid temps last month . It rained most of Saturday  and today a very faint snow falling then it cleared up and the sun has been popping in and out . Miggs and I went for our daily morning  walk  . Then we came home and I took photos .  Lots of the snow has or is melting  thanks goodness .
