More Snow and Ice

We got some more snow the other day, just enough to get a good workout in the driveway. I did some shoveling, then Wayne did the rest with the snowblower.  It's nice to see a bit of snow on the trees and on the lake.


After driving down to the lake I stopped at a neighbor's house to enjoy the birds congregating around the feeders he was filling.  I tried getting some shots from the car but only one came out even close to what I was expecting.  I'm thinking my zoom lens just isn't fast enough.  I'm also thinking it's time to get my own bird feeders so I can practice getting bird shots.


This afternoon I chipped away at the ice on half the driveway for half an hour before my aching back made me call it quits.  It started raining pretty hard as I was putting my shovels away.  Wayne is coming back from an ice fishing trip up north this afternoon and I hope the roads won't be too iced up.  Give me snow any day over ice!

  2. Makes the smattering we had fall last night look pathetic. Never seen a Cardinal before.

  3. Love the Cardinal picture. I'll bet the birds would really appreciate it if you'd get a feeder! Poor guys, I don't know why they don't all head south.
