Beauty in spite of Winter

I am rooting a fuchsia plant in my kitchen window,

and it decided it was time to flower.

Interesting to see this with snow on the ground outside the window,

the wind howling, and fires going in the stoves.

Visiting wildlife

A small portion of the Roosevelt Elk herd came to forage in the field.

Sky Watch Sunrise

I don't get up for the sunrise often, but it's a lot easier in the winter here.

This was taken at 7:59 am, and the sun is not yet over the hill.

That's a time I'm up. The summertime 4:30 am is a little beyond me usually.

Now that's an ice cube!

This was created during the recent storms in a water barrel.

It has wonderful bubble patterns.

We just had to try putting a light inside.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!
