At the moment, as has been common, this winter, snow! We're forecast to get 2-4 inches, today, to add to 15 inches already on the ground. I had a lovely surprise on Valentine's Day, though, when a darling little red-phase Eastern Screech-Owl roosted in my backyard apple tree for more than an hour, in the mid-afternoon! That was a first! Several weeks ago, a female Pileated Woodpecker visited the yard! Another first! Sometimes, it's lovely to live in a rural area! Barbara (Columbia County, New York)
