Ice Puddle


Today was a great day for a walk in the woods. The sun was shining and there wasn't a breath of wind. The ground was still frozen and there wasn't a sound in the forest.

Garter Snake


I found this garter snake in my tomato patch this morning. I was worried about scaring him away until he struck my camera lens. He's about 2 feet long and has attitude. I'll pick the rest of my tomatoes tomorrow.... carefully.
