So once our blizzard was done blizzarding.....
The Sun came out!
Annie was right! (of course she was.)
Belle even came out (she doesn't "do" precipitation).
After we shoveled her a spot that is.
It's such a colorful time of year....
Barry B. Badger was out and about...
He's an amateur Weather Prognosticator, case you didn't know.
Curiously, I had drawn a picture of Barry... a year ago, before i actually met him.
Who knew?
The world works in mysterious ways.

(Cooking/baking and I.... not always a good combination....)
The dogs do so love a good snow fall!

| Seriously my favorite picture EVER of them! |
Small dog.... BIG shadow.
The End.
For now.... butt we'll be back.

I was waiting to see how long those carrot noses lasted! Is the first bird a form of Nuthatch? It looks similar to our UK nuthatches. Would love to know. CT :o)
ReplyDeleteYes, I believe it is a Nuthatch.... there were two of them ~ going down the tree upside down like they do! Lots of snow seems to bring all manner of bird life to the feeders! :)
DeleteGlad to see you!! Quite a lot of snow there, we keep getting little bits and it's freezing, need some bright sunshine now, there's been a distinct lack of it, too many grey days. I love the birds, it does look a bit nuthatchy that first bird and a bit woodpeckery the 2nd, do you call them flickers or something?? Love the dogs and the carrot eating and the long shadows, those 2 big noses are ace :) xX
ReplyDeleteI just looked up the wood pecker, it's a "red bellied woodpecker" ??? Curious... perhaps the name "Red Head" wood pecker was already taken? We seem to have jumped into winter over here, all at once! Loving it of course! :)))
DeleteLove your story telling pictures Mel....long shadows, winter woolies and the brilliant Barry - who would've thunk it, your predictive illustration!
ReplyDeleteFab birds and funny faces!
Ali x
Need to get back to MORE of that illustration stuff! :))))))))))))
DeleteA very enjoyable read and love the pics:o))
ReplyDeleteHave a good day.......Lyn x
Please come on back and visit again some time!!
Deleteteeehee.....I love creatures in the snow. How they react, how they play. HEY! Somebody ate the snowman's carrot nose!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting for you to come back to post. I just found you a few days ago and love it! Anita
Tonto is the guilty one, with carrot juice on his lips! :)))) (cute lips though...) :))))
DeleteA great story in photos! Your gang (except Belle) seems to enjoy the snow.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if we got Belle a hat and some woozy boots, she might like it more??
DeleteHey, do you have your sparkling door knob at last? Not as good as the Nantucket one but it'll do. ;-)))
ReplyDeleteTonto and Belle do know how to pose for a photo, don't you think? Good to see Ava and Marley are enjoying themselves. ;-)
The sparkles are on the laundry room door! :)))) ~ Don't worry, I'm know my place in the door knob society! :))))) ha ha
DeleteI don't know where to begin! I think my favorite is the carrot stealing picture....although, maybe the culprit was really putting the nose ON the snowman instead of taking a bite. The dogs sure look like they're enjoying the snow. I so enjoy your posts. I'm not sure I'm crazy about how winter did arrive all at once. Brrr! Stay warm and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteSo if I put the pictures up in reverse, it would appear he (Tonto) had installed the carrot nose! ha ha ha
DeleteMore snow on the way for the weekend! ~ :))))
Gosh you really did get snow, the last post was pretty deep and glad to know you are such a lover of snow as you have lots of animals to look after, make sure they are all safe and fed. Had a laugh at badger Barry, as Someone has the same name and I think he owns a red jacket too. I love a good selection of bright coloured hats and mitts, warm and happy wearing them and building all those great snowmen. Great leggings.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and lots more fun in the snow. What is the weather forecast? Keep cosy .x
Weather forecast: Saturday ~ sun....to clouds..to snow; Sunday ~ snow. Monday, Snow. Tuesday, less snow? Ha ha ~ Actually, it's snowing now ~ despite the bright sunshine! COLD today though, our "high" was only in the teens! Extra wooly wear is the only answer! Thanks so much for visiting!
Deletelook like you all had fun in the snow, love the carrot nose being eaten! xxx
ReplyDeletewow! What a magical day with your marvelous menagerie!
ReplyDeleteOh my, you did have a blizzard! Loved to see the photos of the animals in the snow, having such fun.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it here with all the animal friends....and the silly photos. LOVE the snowman!
ReplyDeletePopped back in to tell you how much I love that scarf you got in that basket . Oh yes and February has run off completely ~ March on ...March on .
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy Easter, yes that is Easter, bunny rabbits, chocolate eggs and chickens and daffodils. And wonderful little creations Here. I hope it has warmed up and you have some signs of spring by now!
ReplyDeleteI shall call back and hope to see you are snow free and out of hibernation.
Have a great weekend. X
