Look WAAAAY up!

Look WAAAAY up!
As you can tell by the colour of the sky, the weather wasn't very good when I called in at a local park on 1 May 2014. Quite a cute photo, though not good quality. I had been there two days earlier and discovered that both owlets had fledged. That time, one owlet was perched on a high branch next to Mom and the other was almost at the very top of the same very tall tree. On the day I took this photo, both little ones were huddled together next to Mom. Thank goodness for lots of zoom : )

After something like 10" of snow yesterday, it was still snowing early this morning, but seems to have stopped, at least for the moment. (Yep, sure enough, it's snowing again now!). I'm really hoping that the forecast showers tonight will clear the snow off my vehicle, as I can't lift my very painful arms and shoulder high enough to do it. I don't have the choice to stay home tomorrow, as I have to go and get my Taxes done, lol. More snow tomorrow and the next day : (

, , have particularly liked this photo
