Ground Hog Day

Well, we don't have any ground hogs. But if we did, I'm afraid
they would not see their shadows! Nothing here but ice and snow!
I guess that means spring is a long way off, at least in Ohio!
If you buy bird seed with peanuts in the mix you're bound
to get a squirrel or two! This picture was taken as
I sat at my desk Tuesday afternoon.
Here's a view from the window he was sitting in
Going.....
Going.... Gone.... See the ice all over the bush?
By Wednesday night it will be buried in snow!

  17. Cute as your squirrel is, they tend to "take over" and scare all the birds away around my house. We just have way too many of them around here!!!! Love your bird and mailbox sketch---so sweet. Stay warm.

  18. How cute! And since Phil didn't see his shadow, spring will be here sooner. YAY! Be safe in all that ice and snow.

  19. You can't begrudge him the peanuts when the snow is that thick - and getting thicker? Oh my, stay warm and safe!

  22. AmyL< ~ is that how it works? No shadow means spring is soon? Maybe I got it backwards. Hard to believe with the weather we are getting, though! :)
