Light snow joining active and hungry birds in the still morning, one small fluff of feathers has been visiting the greenhouse gleaning seeds from the fall and enjoying a respite from the harsher winter outside, crusty surfaces with little drifts in the blown paths where Lancer luxuriates with his hay, warmer temps coaxing some slight shedding and a velvety coat glows with red tips against white in the graying, faded light.

Full of sparkling diamonds the fresh inch cleaning and brightening, deep purple and blue where the rays are crossing depressions, horse butt reporting chilly wind direction as NW, sky contrasting indigo with those setting reds remaining dormant at the ends of branches, cold stunning light breaking the morning for the beginning of the new week.

Sweet Morning
Sweet morning with a cold start, winter prevailing with frozen beauty, blue skies touched with white high clouds, snow below hoof remaining fluffy, paths appearing with tracks of all sizes as normally unseen feet make their way through, no wind to disturb the blue jays cackling and hunger hunting.

A Fresh Bucket
All water solid overnight and the ice pile flourishing, sharing a fresh bucket, casting crisp shadows on brilliant white snow, blue shades reflecting from clear skies, a few long hairs shedding in extending light, hinting buds ending branches with a suggestion of new color bringing hope of spring and honoring the passing.

Actually Eating In This Morning
Lancer is actually eating in this morning – photo is from 2011 and a personal favorite – snow falling, hush covering, piling higher, white growing, wind quiet, clouds heavy, trees accumulating, winter delivering!

A Nice Today Between Yesterday and Tomorrow
Yesterday’s visit – “There’s a horse at the door!” freshly minted and looking for another snowy day tomorrow, sunny for this day with melting and dripping in stronger sunlight, a lovely calm before the storm.

Winter’s Icy Path
Sweet Saturday
Sweet contented nose in hay, sunshine warming countenance as gentle rays play among the softening snow, welcome temps begin the day relaxing eyelids and soothing the harsh exit of January.
