Midwinter

 

The squirrels are trying to take over the bird feeder. We counted eight the other day.  We've never seen so many at once.

 

 

The chickens come out as long as the sun is shining, but I'm sure they would rather have grass, too.

 

You'll note that the chickens have a few guardians out there in the yard.  The crows ate the sunflower seeds we used for snowmen faces, though.  (Sorry about the glare in this picture, but you didn't think I was going to go outside to take it, did you?

 

The snow is pretty deep in some places.  Deep enough to build a curtain wall for a snow fort.

 

Or a really big snowball.

 

(That would be the driveway.  The driveway is good sledding.)

 

February.

it’s probably because of the acorn shortage!!!
