Snow Pictures!

Well, it took until January 5/6, but we finally got some snow!  Now it looks more like winter, and I'm very much enjoying it.
  First, I have three pictures from January 4th, before it snowed.

Four from the 5th.  The first three I took in the morning while the sun was coming up, and then the last one I took in the afternoon when the sun was shining directly on that pine tree.

The western sky was a rosy pink from the sunrise, and it looked pretty with the light dusting of snow and hoarfrost.

And then on the 7th, a picture of the snow we finally got!

On the 8th, we had a female Pileated woodpecker on the bird feeder.

Snow-covered spruce trees on the 10th:

Sunset on the 11th:

Sunrise on the 13th, and then in the evening, the sun shining on the snow-capped fence railings.

Sunrise on the 14th.  A crazy little woodpecker . . . she should have stayed home that day  (We had quite a cold snap last week; temperatures in the -30s, and there were two or three days where for a time, we were down to -42 and -43°C).  And that night, the crescent moon.

And finally, the sunrise from this morning, beautiful as always!
