My older daughter took care of feeding the critters this morning, so it was an hour or so before I headed out myself.
By then, the outside water bowl was already mostly frozen.
When I first got there, Beep Beep was sitting with her front paws in the bowl, on the ice.
My phone distracted her. :-D
Then I used the ice scraper to break up the surface of the ice in the water bowl. Next thing I knew, there were three cats drinking out of it!
One of my usual morning rounds had been to pick up all the twigs and branches in the yard that had fallen overnight. Once the snow got deep, I left the smaller stuff for spring. After yesterday’s winds, however, I went around and picked up some of the larger branches that had come down.
Trudging through unbroken snow is much more difficult than it looks. :-D
