PLEASANT SURPRISES ON A VERY COLD EVENING
Friday, February 20, 2015

Between a very tiring week and some brutally cold weather, it was awfully tempting to to skip going outside... but I finally dragged myself out the door, to be greeted by a gorgeous view of a thin cresecent moon, Venus, and Mars just visible over the houses across the street.


On my way to the grocery store I passed tonight's roost for the local crows.... hundreds and hundreds of crows in the trees getting settled in for the night. I suspect it's not as fascinating if they're roosting over your yard... but I never get bored seeing all those birds perched overhead, rustling their feathers and talking to each other.
