First snow of the season

Category: my Winter thoughts | Posted: Thu Dec 20, 2012 6:52 pm

It started as rain yesterday afternoon, then turned to snow and continued most of the overnight. We woke to 4.5 inches of the white stuff! We're fortunate not to have to go out, as the road are icy.The moisture is very welcome. I know it isn't going to fix this extreme drought we're in, but it can't hurt now, can it?
We have been watching birds coming to the feeders. We got them all stocked and full of nuts and treats. There is quite a crowd out there now. There was a Redtail Hawk sitting in the tree at daybreak, watching for breakfast, but Bob chased it off. I didn't want to see a hapless squirrel or bird become a meal. I know they have to eat too, but not in my backyard!
So, with cold temps, I believe we'll be having a white Christmas.

Congrats with the blanket of snow. Fingers crossed for a white christmas. It's looking good for that right about now.
