There are a lot of daily horrors, I know, but also there is a popular band called goose and a totally unrelated popular band called geese, and this just causes me no end of delight.

Here’s little myrtle warbler all poofed up for the cold snap. Amazing how these little guys stay warm.

Today was gloriously sunny and a little warmer than it has been, after that record-breaking dump of snow. Thankfully the snow was fluffy, the kind that falls when it’s very cold, so not as terrible to shovel as the good packing snow. It sure drifts easily, tho. And it crunches, squeaks under foot.

It was a cold morning here, but once again, the birds don’t care! They were frantically foraging for food and this Pine Siskin paused for just a second in the sun!

The answer to this is obviously yes. Sadly, few who aren't artists consider art to be work, so the idea is generally looked on as some kind of skive, because we rarely look beyond the end of our own noses and are utterly in love with misery.
