The wind is incredible today. the steady sound, sort of a dull roar, has gone on for hours and hours. The wind races down the highway. Very windy in the front. not so windy in the door yard thanks to many evergreen trees. It is cold without the wind, but way too cold to be out without a coat when the wind is blowing like it is.
Dark and light clouds, breaks of sun. flurries coming fast and furious. Blue and white sky now but more dark clouds to follow. The wind is still humming away.
The dogs are in and glad to be. They all have had a few spicy dog treats and chews to keep them busy. inbetween munching they snooze, what dogs do best.
This is the kind of day when i wonder how the little birds manage to survive the cold. I do the best i can, making sure there is a variety of seed and suet always available. Water..all the birdbaths are frozen, but they can stop at the fish pond. While ice floats on the top, there are still several areas of open water. I do wish more birds would find the pond and use it, especially once the heater is on. The water will not be warm but it will also not be frozen solid.
A good day for people to be inside.
