6:22  Nice gentle snow today 3 inches deep, but will fluff away with a broom.  Pretty cold, but no wind so bearable.  I may walk a little just to stay loose.
No Cal.  I like KFC, but not that much.  Also nobody I ever been with did that.  The dog is special.  I wonder how the folks in the other car felt?  I think I would at least be a little tense.  LOL
 That reminds me I did not have lunch yet and KFC is very close to me.  Less than a mile.  My mouth is watering just thinking of it. LOL
Bought Debbie a pair of Muck boots this morning.  She will love them. I love mine. They are so warm with only a thin cotton sock and so easy to pull on and off. They are a little high, but worth it.
So lunch is calling me.
Go Bengals!!!!!

  Football ...  21:26            77°   (2:47 pm)  Sunny, no breeze at the moment.  It feels great to just be outside in the backyard.  When Maddie was here, I used sit out back and read with her.  She got fresh air and a chance to run around and exercise and I got fresh air and got some reading done too.  I didn't ever let her or Zoe be outside in the yard on their own. 

I hope all of you are enjoying your Super Bowl.   "Grizz!  Leave mom alone and let her watch her game!"

I do hope you got some enjoyment out of that game whether your team won or lost.  Did you hear what seat on the 50 yard cost? -- $50,000.   yikes!!!

ed, Pretty Girl, the Bobcat, and a New Bird - UPDATE February 14, 2022
Brown creeper
Brown creeper
"Pooch Pal" caught this 3½ -minute music video of Ted active in his den yesterday. Makes me want to go see him again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDD4oGvVQlM

Pretty Girl was back! She even got up on a snow mound outside my window to see if I was at my desk. But it was only tracks I saw plus the disappearance of the turkey skeleton that had some meat on it. There were also tracks of the bobcat, and a sighting of it less than two tenths of a mile away leaving the property at about 3 PM today.

I miss seeing Pretty Girl, but the fact that she was here the same day as the bobcat makes me less worried that she will be killed by it. At the same time, though, I’m wondering where she goes for so much of the time. I’m glad she still visits when she does.

Yesterday was our first sighting of a brown creeper this winter. We don’t see a lot of them in winter because we are the northern edge of their winter range. This little sparrow-sized bird spirals up the trunk of tree after tree looking for insects to pluck from crevices with its long, narrow, curved beak. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one out on a branch—only on trunks.

Thank you for all you do.

6:41  Looks like my old beagle.  What a good dog he was.  All the neighborhood kids would come and sit with him whenever he was outside on his chain, which was most of the time weather permitting.  He was good in the house too, but he really liked the outside.  I think it was due to the company he had.  His name was Duke.  We had him from a puppy to very old age.  He was great.  Still sad when I think of him.  We had many dogs as a family, but he was our first.  As such he was special to us all.
Well enough of that for today.  It is again very nice outside.  Sunny and cool at only 9 degrees.  May try to go for a walk later after lunch.  I use a cane just for extra safety.  I really can walk pretty good because legs are good, but back acts up now and then and causes a stumble. 
Nice to see the MN eagles cam showing the first egg of 2022. I will go check my cams now.  CUL EV1 GB

What a Difference a Day Makes - UPDATE February 16, 2022
Chickadee
Chickadee
Red Squirrel
Red Squirrel
Hoary Redpoll
Hoary Redpoll
One day it is sunny, making chickadees bright. The next is snowy with squirrel tails acting as umbrellas.

A treat along the way was a hoary redpoll that was easy to distinguish from the browner, more heavily streaked common redpolls. Not all hoaries are this frosty and pale. A mark not showing here is the white un-streaked rump patch.

No sign of Pretty Girl. Being patient here.

Thank you for all you do,

Yes Cal, that is a nice version of curling.  How do they do that?
 I am glad to have the MN and North eagles to watch now.  Chat is open .  Cam ops are getting good close up and saving good videos of action by both parents.  Just think if they did not build and camera this North nest we would have no nest to watch since Decorah moved away out of camera range.
Maybe we will get to watch the Vultures too this summer.  I hope so .
I will take a ride around this afternoon to view the flooding creeks and streams.  I like to do that.  I will be safe, and not drive through any flooded streets.  Don't worry.
Bye for now EV1 GB
