Middle of the Week with Snow....


After they eat they take a break and just sit. I see them set on a fence the same way, sitting still while taking in on their surroundings.


Today will be like our typical Iowa winter days, with light snow for the next three days.  The temperatures are just at freezing and the snow fall is gentle. I took time to fill the feeders out on the deck as the build up of snow is not too bad yet.

The mess is still there on the deck.  I created it and we had melting for a couple hours in the night. It is still there.  Maybe I can get my energy level excited to go out and clear it during a lull today.


A ducking head of the dove gives me an interesting pose. They should be back soon as I just opened a new sack of seed and filled all the containers.

My indoor door garden is great to see when there is snow all over the ground outside.  My pet bunny sat out the window yesterday but I haven't seem him this morning.  The agapanthus keeps me in good foliage all winter. I move them around in the downstairs level as if they are ferns. They don't seem to mind the lower light.

I brought in the sack of topsoil yesterday from the garden storage shed.  It finally thawed out as the moisture in the soil was frozen solid. It won't make great soil for flowers and yet I have some flower potting soil that I can mix with it. I have an abundance of sanseveieria; plants that need to be separated and replanted in different new pots. That kind of plant is not too particular by its kind of soil.
As we continue to watch our weather we will probably say inside all day. I hope everyone is doing well.  Thanks for stopping by today.
