It's past 10am as I start this post, and we are still surrounded by fog! The camera automatically cleans up images, so this photo does not reflect just how dense the fog was when I took it! Not only does fog normally disappear quite a bit earlier than this, but it's also pretty breezy out … Continue reading Foggy morning, and more looking ahead

Pretty morning
We had a light snowfall all night, with almost no wind. This morning, the trees looked like they were covered in frost! It's enough to almost make the junk cars in the old hay yard look pretty. Almost. Fresh tracks at the feeding station, and around to the ornamental apply trees in the old kitchen … Continue reading Pretty morning

Signs in the snow
While they don't come around when we're around to see them, there are plenty of signs that the deer are coming to the feeding station. The snow was absolutely trampled this morning! You can see it all the way back to the corner of the spruce grove, before the tracks start splitting up into smaller … Continue reading Signs in the snow

Colder temps and signs of furry visitors
It was a bit perplexing, looking at the weather forecasts over the past few days. We'd have these lovely temperatures, hovering just a bit below freezing, while the app was saying it was cold. A few days ago, I could at least blame the wind chill... There is no new snow in those streams blowing … Continue reading Colder temps and signs of furry visitors

I had quite a surprise last night! As I got up from my computer to do the cat stuff a bit earlier than usual - the only reason I happened to see this while there was still enough light - I caught movement out the north facing window. Three deer had been startled and were … Continue reading You can herdly tell

Another day
I had some company while I was doing my rounds this morning. I thought it was just adorable, how they loafed themselves against the wind, while keeping their toes out of the snow. 😀 I would love to have been able to do that same, this morning! The batteries were getting low on the new … Continue reading Another day

Compilation video
Part of my daily routine is to switch out the memory cards on the trail cams, then see what's on them. I was quite surprised to see a large number of files on the new camera, a couple of nights ago. It turned out we had a lot of traffic going past it that night! … Continue reading Compilation video

Can you tell?
Yesterday morning, when I went outside to feed the critters and do my rounds, it had already been snowing for quite some time. I had to brush several inches of snow off the platform bird feeder, but the deer feed just got put on the ground in the usual places. Of course, it got completely … Continue reading Can you tell?

All set, and checking things out
Yesterday was a fairly long day, as the girls and I made another trip into the city. Which should be the last supply trip needed. From now on, anything we'll need over the month can be picked up locally. Of course, before we headed out, I fed the critters. As I was putting food and … Continue reading All set, and checking things out
