That is so cool, Greg. I didn't realize the snow storms hitting New Mexico got even further south than Las Cruces.

That is surreal, I haven't even seen snow fall, though I've been very close.

Nice picture! We've been getting more snow here in Arkansas this year than I've ever seen, we usually only get one very light dusting per year and then it's all gone the next day... We've had 3 or 4 good snowfalls so far this year, in one day it snowed 8-9 inches. It's been crazy (crazy fun that is!)

Here are a couple of pics that I took near the house:

Awesome photo, Greg. I was at a friend's house around the block on Saturday afternoon and we got some great shots of a couple of deer that were practically licking the dining room window. We do get a lot of deer around here (sadly, you usually see them laying by the side of the road) and I've spotted at least two coyotes. I'm going to be on the lookout for some photo opportunities today and tomorrow, since the weatherman is forecasting a possible foot of snow by the time it's all said and done tomorrow night (which I'm really hoping isn't the case...especially since I'm heading out to Ann Arbor for a recital tomorrow night).

Thanks for the snow photos. BB Player's fox looks like it is having fun.

Glad that the only snow that I see is via long distance.

It's kind of hard to tell from the picture since it was taken through a window with a screen on it, but it's a coyote.

I had music playing in the family room and it came out of the woods, stood for about a minute looking at the house (listening to the music no doubt!) which gave me time to get the camera. It then circled around the house and I got four shots before it disappeared back into the woods.

I hear them at night all the time but don't see them very often.

Our house last Spring:

Our house today, after approx. 30" of snow in 2 storms within a week here in Central PA (things are worse to the east and south of us):

I've been trying to play golf thru the winter, but I may have to wait awhile (unless I use bright orange golf balls and snow shoes).

Monster, I LOVEEEE the pics! I have a little Yorkie and he LOVES it when it snows, but this last snow was a bit too much for him. He's sunk up to his ears in a few deep drifts, but he keeps heading right for the deepest parts lol.
Chopin4Life, Wow, that second and third shot are awesome! Great pics!

Thanks stores!

Those horses weren't so nice to us. They tried to chase us out of the field! I also love the third photo. It almost looks like a magical vortex. Completely unintended by the way.

Love everyone else's pics.

Sunset view from my porch.. snow-covered bird feeder. Still getting the same birds now as in summer.. cardinals, chickadees, blue jays, doves, etc. Wonder which birds fly south? None of mine, it seems. Maybe because of all the good food I keep buying them? smile

You didn't know? Maine is the camp capital. The cat and the dog camps are the most exciting. Usually right across the lake from each other. smile

There's a dog camp in Halifax - it's called Camp Bow-Wow. Maybe your duck camp could be Camp Quack-Quack?
