First Snow..............

November 9th, first real snow. We were told would get 5inches last night. We did not. We may get it tonight though. So today I took some pictures. It was pretty but not as much snow as I had expected and pretty much gone by noon. Tomorrow, well we shall see.


Everything was so pretty with a dusting of wet snow



There were plenty of birds today and too many squirrels. Boots wanted to go out, I let her. She just sat and pretended she was enjoying it. I asked if she wanted to come back inside she said no. On 2nd call she came in.

There were Junco's



Woodpeckers


There were Nuthatches and Tufted Titmice.


There were Blue Jays


Some people were just plain greedy.

Later there was also a Cardinal, this guy always comes at dusk so it's hard to get clear pictures. I have managed to get some good Cardinal pictures but not today.



I was more fascinated by the leaves and dew drops


Gerry took the Poodles out to pee and a wander around between showers. The snow was turned to rain/drizzle before getting back to snow as it got cold again. They enjoyed a stroll and a yap at passers by.


I love to capture unusual things in my pictures. I loved this shot

The colours with the snow on


The inevitable Chickadees were flitting around too. He looks fuzzy because he was shaking his feathers.


I will see what tomorrows like, we should have more snow. I put out extra food after it got dark in case the Possom comes back.
