Changes in the weather but not much else

Waiting for breakfast 1-18-21

It’s hard to figure out the weather lately. One day it’s sunny and warm(ish); a few days later it’s cloudy and in the 20s. Or rainy. Or snowy. Or warm enought to wear a t-shirt when for the afternoon feeding! These are from the trail camera on January 6 (left) and January 24 (right).

You can see the changes in this video of the river, too.

Other than the weather, not much else has changed in the Hollow since my last post. The three tom turkeys and the deer come regularly. Friendly and some of the other deer have become rather insistent about getting apples and will sometimes try to take them right out of my bucket!

Give us apples!

I haven’t gone through the thousands of pics from the trail camera to see who’s visited recently, but here’s a visitor that walked up the road one afternoon.

The fox went out on a chilly…afternoon?

And here’s a video of what goes on in the meadow.

And some from the white Christmas plus a few more.

And here’s a video I just took! I’m glad I filled the pans earlier; we were expecting another wintry mix, but nothing like this!

There’s a story about Noel, the little black stray cat I rescued; I’ll make a separate post soon. But for now, the closing video of the field. I have to get ready in case we lose power! 😦
