It made me wistful for warmer days. I have been locked in by ice and wind chill in teens. Should warm enough in a few days to go looking again. Cedar Waxwings have been spotted by a friend from her window. :)

thanks Gators. I wish I had roasted chestnuts to eat by the lakeside and this peaceful setting.Makes me philosophical! :)
In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.
