That’s a long time without the sun😳. Glad the snow didn’t stick… it’s beautiful coming down and know you need the moisture. It got cloudy and temps dipped to below freezing for a few hours past couple of nights but the south wind and sun and 60 degrees are back today👍❤️

Grace seems to be doing awesome. She amazes me! And Jacob is majoring in engineering, I seem to think it’s a double major but I can’t remember which ones! He amazes me too!

It was wonderful to see so many robins together! in the UK, they're pretty solitary. Great duck photos, too. Thank you! I look forward to more in 2024.

Thank you Jeffrey! In the summer here they have their own territories but in the winter they party together.

Amazing video of the robins--so many! And the slow motion makes them look like ashes swirling in the snow...a beautiful image for the end of the year...

Thanks Ken! They are hard to photograph or video usually because they spread out when the fly and then they look so small! So this was a rare opportunity for sure. I like that, ashes swirling in the snow.

Wonderful videos of those Robins and snowfall! I love how some of the Robins and heavy snowflakes appear similar until you see the Robins turn and fly upwards. Great photos as welll - especially that final photo of the Sun over the lake.
