But a Christmas Eve snow
A day early this year...
___________
Even though we remain hovering right at the freezing point, early this morning big, fluffy, and wet snowflakes began to fall, continuing even now and providing a beautiful, fresh white accent to the landscape...the northwoods' annual celebration of the season. This shot, as with so many others over the years, taken from my deck.
[This is also the time of year at which I get confused as to whom I've wished Season's Greetings and to whom I have not. Forgive me if I repeat myself and, in the spirit of the holidays, be patient with an old man, accepting good wishes however often they may be repeated. It's the thought, not the memory, that counts. ;-))]

.... aunque quizás las próximas guerras ya no sean con armas convencionales, sino con armas invisibles de las guerras químicas y/o bacteriológicas.

My favorite flower, tulips look good to me in any phase of their life! If I could, I would have a field of tulips in my backyard, but the local animal life digs up the bulbs and they never repeat. I had company Saturday and brought out the chair cushions to the veranda for the first time this season. Only hours later, we looked out to see a squirrel maniacally clawing and chewing a cushion into bits. It had to go in the trash......

We had seen the red-headed woodpecker in the Rehoboth Bay, Delaware, area only once in the 30 years we have been visiting there. We took a picture of that one back in 2016 which was selected for 'In Explore' (see comment 1). Now, suddenly this month and seven years later the subject red-headed woodpecker shows up in almost exactly the same place.
Power lines with the Big Horn Mountains in the background. Another drive-by as we headed north to Cody, Wyoming after driving through the Bighorn Basin and the Gooseberry Badlands.
AT THE POOL
Happiness was a day at a pool
in the grass ringed round
with trees up to the sky
here I was god’s and my
grandpa’s lad – both died,
happiness is dangerous
in the evening the pool has lain down
so mirror-smooth that sky, trees and grass
repeat themselves below the ground
fear and longing both ask me
to come back

Acorn Woodpecker (Melanerpes formicivorus) Male
This is one of three birds tending to the nest that morning. I would guess one lands about every minute or two. I've seen as many as four adults at one time tending to this nest.
Cascade Mountains - Jackson County - Oregon - USA
Habitat : Open Woodlands
Food : Insects
Nesting : Cavity
Behavior : Bark Forager
Conservation : Low Concern
"Acorn Woodpeckers are medium-sized woodpeckers with straight, spike-like bills and stiff, wedge-shaped tails used for support as the birds cling to tree trunks..... Acorn Woodpeckers are very unusual woodpeckers that live in large groups, hoard acorns, and breed cooperatively. Group members gather acorns by the hundreds and wedge them into holes they’ve made in a tree trunk or telephone pole. Acorn Woodpeckers also spend considerable time catching insects on the wing. They give raucous, scratchy waka-waka calls frequently... In groups with more than one breeding female, the females put their eggs into a single nest cavity. A female usually destroys any eggs in the nest before she starts to lay, and more than one third of all eggs laid in joint nests are destroyed. Once all the females start to lay, they stop removing eggs."

This was taken during a Kenai Fjords boat tour.
From www.nps.gov/kefj/learn/nature/glacier-repeat-photography.htm : Aialik glacier sits at the head of Aialik Bay in Kenai Fjords National Park. The name Aialik comes from Sugpiaq, and means, “surprising place”. The glacier is fed by the Harding Icefield, which lies 4 miles up from the face of the glacier. While the face of the glacier has remained relatively stable, there is some surface thinning and retreating on its sides.

After every dip in the water the terns shake dry. Never easy to catch as it takes less than a second and trying to predict the moment is a pig.

Missed this a few days earlier, luckily it re-ran twice in the same week on the lovely midday through Robertson path, perfect for trains heading south in winter.
