Winter's Here

Wise One of the Neighborhood

We're finally getting some decent snow today. Woke up to a fresh coating of fluffy, white stuff...sticking to the trees and making everything look so pristine and calm. Beate loved it and did some prancing and pouncing, which was wonderful to see. The sheep were in fine form, too. The black ewe lambs were jumping and wiggling all over the place, and the older ewes were even doing some dancing, too.

This photo is one that a neighbor took and mailed to me a couple of years ago. He's a resident owl and is often seen sitting down the road on this sign. I love listening to them at night, hooting to each other from across the fields. I think there are Great Horned as well as this type, which I think is a Barred Owl. The wise men of Monkeytown.
