Winter’s Frigid Fingers

shadows

Winter’s frigid fingers fighting for hold as time pries the single digit temps loose one by one, elongated shadows stretching west towards the waning wind, birds hiding where ever it is they go, Lancer is in for a huge change later today yet is steady in his way to adjust to any weather!

Evidence of Spring

shed

Solid evidence that Spring is on its way, shedding is rampant even though flakes may fall, the slow improving temps continue to melt the softening blanket, a coat of white will thrill Lancer (a surprise!) this weekend – though we may be not be thrilled with tonight’s coat of white. Stay tuned and don’t put away the snowblower yet!

Spring is Stirring

love

Sweetness amidst the manure, ice and snow pack, melting slowly, disappearing a bit everyday, a large firmly packed horse angel shows evidence of shedding stuck in its silhouette, mild air greets today with a higher sun and light cloudiness, savoring suggestions of the stirring Spring and sharing sentimental appreciation and thankfulness.

One Step Forward

advance
Light flakes meandering downward – attempting to cover manure and mud, gray predominates the land and sky interrupted by an occasional flash of blue jay or orange robin breast, feeling spring’s pull shortening banks though the ice pile flourishes, old patterns will change with the flow of the season, one step forward for now.

Winter’s Eventual End

face

Only a skimming of ice on the water buckets from overnight, way more shedding, less cold, more birdsong, slight shrink of the snow cover, sun attacking white to fill flowing gutters with liquid dripping and draining away, clearly blue sky welcoming even the chickens outside, wind kicking up – sweeping winter along towards an eventual end.

Hope of the Lamb Springs Eternal

biting

Still biting and nippy temps gracing the pasture, keeping the thick crust strong, ice buckets freezing, the taste of winter freshly chilling, as March comes in with its Lion – seeming to stay – hope of the Lamb springs eternal.

Beauty Day!

rev under

Beauty day freshened white overnight to glisten in the continuing deep freeze, ice abounds slippery under snowfall, strengthening sun shining through the sparkling clear sky, winds abated and high pressure reigns peacefully over the land.

Mean Cold Continues

adore

Cold hardens the sound of the woodpecker knocking, bounces the cardinals song across the field, amplifies the screech from the gang of bluejays terrorizing the neighborhood, icy crunching hoofsteps out beyond the ice pile to find extra flakes of hay, vivid bluest sky in terribly clear dry air continuing the biting chill, deceiving light without any warmth except to saturate the few colors and deepen reflected shadows.

Stark Beginning

detail

Stark beginning to another cold day, spotty clearing in the sky, no snow falling, no snow melting, some very subtle signs of spring if you look really hard, hay is holding up, Rev still delighted with clumping poopsicles, Jays enjoying shriveled crabapples, Sterling the cat still sleeping away the stubborn Winter days.
