Much nicer...


Cropped closer, so much nicer...

Moon shots from last night...


Through the snow and leaves...

Spring will pop up even through the leaves and snow...

New chicks...

My daughter got two chicks...her Bermeise has been drooling over them...

Dusting of snow...



Last week, we had a dusting of snow... at least it wasn't the storms that some people received...but it should didn't look much like spring...

In my yard...


This fox (I think it's a fox) was snooping around my yard this last weekend...He moved too fast to get a good pic...got one though...just not the best...cool to have him there though...

Been out of it lately...


Like this robin in the snow, I've been a bit out of it lately...too much on my mind...

Seagulls and Lighthouse...


Was photographing the lighthouse one windy day and realized that it would be much nicer if I could get the seagulls in the picture...

Bee Hive...


We had three paper bee hives in our pine trees last summer... wondering if we should tear them down before spring...will the bees come back to the same hive...the hives are a little worse for wear as the winter was a bit hard on them...but they are still pretty...

Sandy snow...


The waves wash the sand up and around into the snow on the beach...then the water gets trapped between the snow piles and the sand...leaves a bird bath for the gulls...

Moon Shot...


I believe this is just before the February full moon...

Final Snow...


Well, I think the snow is finally leaving us...this small pine and log are beginning to peek out of the drifts...

Green Stuff...


The green stuff is beginning to show...no crocus yet...here's some green leaves though...are they from last year...or new this year...

New Life...



The new chicks will be in stores soon...so different for varied lifestyles and areas...city people for Easter pets...country people for food...Pet stores (just a few) or farm stores (hundreds)...I had a friend hatch these for me...they lived in his living room for a couple weeks...he so enjoyed having them around for a while...

Ice Patterns...




We've had the strangest weather...Freezing in the mornings...then muddy in the afternoons...Need winter coats in the morning and go in shirt sleeves in the afternoon...bizarre...but makes wonderful ice patterns in the drive...
