Another above normal temperature day in December is always a treat. A good day to get some outside work done without freezing or to enjoy a walk through the woods. This tree looks a little creepy with arms ready to grab you.

I’m not sure which is worse – the squirrels digging up my lawn burying acorns or them climbing up my screen porch to get to the bird feeders.

With the arrival of a new month, meteorological winter starts, which includes the months of December, January and February. The frost was heavy this morning but at least no snow on the ground although I would be happier with meteorological autumn instead.

On a day with temperatures in the 40s in late November, some people may have enjoyed some outdoor activities before the colder weather settles in for the winter. But the landscape isn’t as colorful as it was early last month and now the bare trees have to wait for spring for the green to return.

The dark, drizzly day had me wishing for some color like last month’s autumn leaves.

After multiple nights below freezing, the pretty yellow of the goldenrod is gone and now the color matches closer to the white of snow.

I notice that the recent windy days, including today, have most of the autumn leaves off even the mighty oaks that normally hang on a little longer into the year. But with only traces of snow left, it was a nice day for walk before winter returns with more snow.

As autumn continues to fade away into winter, you can’t find too many colorful things but there are a few splashes of color from the berries on some shrub branches.

The cloudy, rainy, and snowy day prevented a pretty sunset or even a nice day to walk along the beach since the wind chill was in the teens all day.

What a difference a month can make. The temperature was just barely above freezing but warm enough for the precipitation to be rain and not snow for the moment. Watching water falling drop down over rapids on a warm autumn day is more enjoyable than the cold rain this afternoon that will turn to snow tonight.
