Snow day
Earlier this week, we got 13.5 inches of snow within a twenty-four hour time period. Fortunately, snow doesn’t generally last long around here. It’s up in the 40’s today and it is suppose to be in the 60’s early next week. I’ve always been told that if you don’t like the weather in West Tennessee, just wait a couple of days, and it will change. So true! Here are a few photos that I took on our “snow day” walk down our country road.
“A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky, unbidden, and seems like a thing of wonder.” ~Susan Orlean
Sitting on a log
“I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.” ~Henry David Thoreau
Tufted Titmouse
Tufted titmice are frequent visitors to my feeders. It is not always easy to get a photo of them because they flit in and out so quickly. I usually hear their clear echoing voice before I actually see them, which is my cue to get my camera ready.
“Those who wish to sing … always find a song.” ~Swedish Proverb
