The snow has melted away, but the north wind doth blow. It's fun to spot all the bird and squirrel nests in the tall trees, not to mention seeing the various hawks who are no longer hidden, as they scan for prey.
Still not adjusted to the early sunsets; what about you? Although a winter sunset has a certain beauty with muted colors reflecting the cold winds and temperatures.
I think of the very tall evergreens that stand around the neighborhood as sentinels. Watching and guarding, offering protection for the wildlife, as the soft whooshing sound of the wind through their piney branches reminds me of a winter song.
Enjoying and appreciating Nature during this Season can be a little difficult. You just have to know what to look for. Nature is always ready to greet you.
Must fly. Blessed Be!

Ah, how I remember Christmas trees and kittens. I used to hang cow bells along the bottom branches. As soon as they went near the bells would ring and they would run away. My Miss Minga is in her 23rd year now and cannot be bothered with the tree. Brought tears to my eyes remembering just then what used to be.
