Falling snow might be pretty to some people, but not when you know you will be out shoveling that snow whenever it stops in very cold temperatures.

The sun finally came out, shining on the new fresh snow making it seem brighter, but the clear skies means it will get below zero tonight.

Some of the birds are complaining that I haven’t cleaned the snow off the bird feeder when they do adventure out from under the snow laden pine branches but it is still snowing so it will get reburied in that cold white stuff.

St. Patty’s Day must have sucked all the green up yesterday and didn’t leave any left for today as it was a white morning with the new snowfall overnight. And the robins have been snowed more than the three times needed for spring to come so nature needs a counting lesson as I want green and not white.

The sunset will be later this evening due to the daylight saving time change, although the rain probably will prevent seeing one this evening, but the time change is another reminder that spring is coming and that makes it easier to take picture outside without fingers and camera freezing up!

Although the wind chill this morning is below freezing, yesterday was abnormally warm so I ventured outside in the afternoon. After watching the bald eagle circling overhead and watching the three geese resting on the edge of my pond, I set out to clean the birdhouses. And while I didn’t have to stand in any snow to clean the houses, I did have to skirt around some snow drifts and you would feel the air temperature change when next to the drifts.
Normally I have to evict some rodents from the houses and at times it is hard to get them to leave, so this time I took my camera to take pictures of the field mice and didn’t find any little four-legged critters in the houses. So halfway on my trek of cleaning the houses, I left my camera behind so of course I did eventually found a pair of ‘cute’ looking mice in one house but probably good I didn’t have my camera then as the deer had rutted up the path so much that in one spot I sank and splashed mud all over me and my clothes.
So after throwing my clothes in the wash and taking a shower, I ate some ice cream on the porch barefoot without a coat or sweatshirt on – something that doesn’t have very often in early March!
Time for Spring Cleaning

Most of the recent snow probably will melt with warmer temperatures and predicted rain so maybe the ground will be visible again, although it will be brown instead of green until the grass starts growing again.

The robins got their tails snowed on again yesterday, so after one more time, spring can finally come. The clouds didn’t know that meteorological spring started on Tuesday so it didn’t need to drop more flakes so apparently it is following astronomical spring instead.

There was sun dogs in the sky last evening but by the time I got my camera, the mini rainbows of the sun dogs had faded away as the thicker clouds moved in. And those thicker clouds this morning are dropping huge snowflakes again but at least there was a pretty sunset last evening.

During the night, I had a black & white visitor but it was a rather smelly one! This is the second visit in a week’s time, so I rather the skunk went to some other house to visit for a while as I rather cuddle a black and white kitty who doesn’t smell so bad.
