Spring(?) on the Prairies

The photos from the Sprouts Model Search will be coming soon...really!

In the meantime, I thought I would share a couple photos I took while I was at home last week.

It may feel like spring here, but back home, it was all winter.

Cold - but beautiful - the hoar frost thick on the trees, the sky, a brilliant blue, and the sun, turning ice crystals into a thousand dancing stars."Locals" on the farm
There is quite an abundance of birds out there....
It could have something to do with my parents converting a bird bath into one giant birdfeeder
And here is their resident squirrel -this little guy gets quite protective of his stash!
So while we enjoy the blossoms here...this is what life back on the farm looked like last week!
