It looks like the snow is coming down at a rate of about an inch an hour. Am glad it will stay fluffy so that I can clear it tomorrow!

The final supermoon of 2025, the Cold Moon, occurs on Thursday, December 4, 2025. It reached its peak illumination at 6:14 p.m. EST. A supermoon appears larger and brighter in the sky because it is closer to Earth in its orbit.

November's Beaver moon will be the largest and brightest Supermoon of the year.
A Supermoon occurs when a full moon coincides with its closest point to Earth. It can be up to 14% larger and 30% brighter than a regular full moon.

The red-bellied woodpecker is called that because of a faint wash of reddish-pink on its lower belly, which is often hidden by feathers and hard to see from a distance.

The Eastern Phoebe is one of our most familiar eastern flycatchers. It's raspy “phoebe” call is a frequent sound around yards and farms in spring and summer.

The Carolina Wren is sensitive to cold weather. The gradually increasing winter temperatures over the last century may have been responsible for the northward range expansion seen in the mid-1900s.
