Die erste Schnee...(the first snow)
The first snow makes my heart, mind, body, and soul dance with glee. I have no idea why this is so. No specific childhood memory comes to mind, no incredibly joyous incident and yet this morning, the excitement was almost unbearable. I danced. I sang. I scampered down the stairs to put on my boots and get out there.
My apologies to all those not so enthralled with snow. Rest assured, by mid-February or even sooner in the new year, I'll be less enthused and maybe even at times somewhat grumpy about it all.
But for now, even just for a few hours today, it was a marvelous, magical happening.

Nice photos. What is the bird in the feeder with the red head?¥
ReplyDeleteThank you! The bird is a red-bellied woodpecker (no red belly that I can see, though some apparently have pink or rosy belly).Had not seen this one at all here until just last week. Now he is a regular.
DeleteStay warm.
