fickle weather...

Saturday it was 67 degrees...amazing! The bees were out, the birds were singing, I set the ferns on our porch to drink in the sunshine.

We had dreams of this...

However; last night we had snow...coming down quite heavily in fact. And so today, this little visitor is at the feeder with friends, where they all can be seen ruffling their feathers and turning away from the wintry winds.

What is Mother Nature up to?!

“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing,

wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating;

there is really no such thing as bad weather,

only different kinds of good weather.”

John Ruskin, 1819~1900
