The "Big Storm" is Past


 
They said this may be our
big storm for this winter.
That would be nice.
 
Here is my husband digging us out.
 

Here are some of our birds
during all the snow.
 
A couple of "snowbirds" -- Dark-eye Juncos
 

A sweet, little Carolina Wren.



A couple of woodpeckers--
 
The Red-Bellied
 
 
and the Downey


 
A handsome Yellow-shafted Flicker
 
 
And a pretty, little Nuthatch.
 
 
Thank you to God, our Creator,
for the beauty and wonder of each season.
 
 
"For the beauty of the earth,
for the glory of the skies,
for the love which from our birth
over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise."
