Merry Christmas

My Vaction

Some of you perfer to spend your vacation on a white sandy beach, I perfer to spend mine on the white snowy lakes of Minnesota.

The Blast

The Blast, that's the best way to describe this weekends snow storm that dropped 18" on us. This male Cardinal had the right idea, just lean your head into the wind, until you can no longer take it. Then go and seat in the warm water of the heated bird pond. However, I think the Squirrel wishes that he could have joined the Cardinal. So far we have had 36" of snow this Winter and we are just getting started.

Saturday Moring

This is what our backyard, looked like, as the sun was starting to come up this past Saturday at about 6:45. I know, that some of you have never seen 6:45 AM, but this is what it looks like. It was just me a the deer. Take a look at the next photo, do you see the four deer bedded down in the woods.
I heard the swans fly over a couple of weeks ago, so I headed down to the back waters of the Minnesota river and I found them. When I did, find them, I found the Trumpeter swans. But this time, I found all three. Mute, Trumpeter and Tundra. Sorry, but is kind of a big thing.
