Whose Tracks Are Those?

This is a great time, after a snowfall, to go and see who was here while we slept.
 The white, untouched blanket is just waiting to be explored.

Look closely . What do you see?

Rabbit prints



Bird prints



Horse print


Hen prints



Bulldog prints



Deer prints


and a shoe print

What did YOU find around your yard or street? 

Let me know. I'd love to hear from you.

Congratulations on your new Blog Marcia! I love it.. It is so...YOU!
Yesterday, I wondered out to my winter garden... I found... seed pods which have nurished birds, ornamental grasses the color of straw, leaf buds on the hydrangia and the quiet a late winter snow can bring...

We always leave our garden *as is* and do not cut everything down as some gardening sources recommend.

When food is scare and snow blankets the ground, birds and other wildlife can sustain themselves on the dried flower heads of many annual and perennial plants.

I also like how the snow transforms the remaining plants into *art*, so wonderful to look at.

Congrats on your new blog! Deb is right it is sooo you. I have to say I agree, I don't cut most things back for winter (a little laziness here - hehehe). I love how snow looks on just about anything. :o) Look forward to reading more posts!
