Life gets pretty routine in the winter - Seniors Centre fitness classes, the occasional social visit, - mostly hooking, knitting, reading. When I go for a walk the camera comes along too.
 |
| First of all the hooking. Winter Fox, designed by Carolyn Stich, is finished and in the Woodhouse Gallery in Port Dover. I thoroughly enjoyed hooking him and am quite pleased with how he turned out. |
 |
| Visit to the Silver Lake Market on a grey Saturday and one end of the lake is iced over. |
 |
| The other end is still open with Buffleheads, Geese and Mallards. |
 |
| Black Squirrel this time |
 |
| all fluffed up on the cold. |
 |
| Rick and I took our annual pilgrimage to see the Sandhill Cranes and they didn't disappoint. |
 |
| Digging around in the corn stubble |
 |
| in the fields along Front Road, Port Rowen. |
 |
| Up in the air and |
 |
| making their strange, warbling calls. |
 |
| Crossing the Causeway |
 |
| I think he is a Northern Harrier. |
 |
| A patch of open water had Trumpeter Swans, ducks and Geese. |
 |
| Driving back across the Causeway there was a Sandhill family close to the road. |
 |
| Digging in the sticky mud of the marsh. |
 |
| and drinking in the few available puddles. |
