Winter Wonderland

We're in the middle of a cold spell and we have had temperatures down to -10 one night. But, this morning we woke up to snow.

We had a 'flock' of small birds feeding at our feeder in the courtyard whilst our two fat, lazy cats stayed indoors! It snowed again late afternoon, but the forecast for next week is mild again, temperatures up to 12 or even 16?!! At least it looks like we won't have snow for Christmas.
