Winter visits

 Winter Visits

We've had more visits from our Red Fox recently. With the fields clothed in a crust of snow (slowly thinning under the sun), the fox has been paying visits to our fields. It passed close to the house a few days ago. Surprisingly, this was at mid-day. Working longer hours to feed kittens, maybe?

This season has been a paltry one for snowfall. The temperature has been above average for quite some time, although it still generally freezes overnight. The conditions are actually pretty good for wildlife tracks. A passing raccoon left sign in our cedar woods:

The frosty uplands and snow-free lowlands have made for some nice landscapes.
