Canada is sometimes referred to as the Great White North. Well yesterday, here in South Ontario , we had a blizzard that dumped 1 foot of heavy wet snow on us. Some places got off more lightly but where we live it gave meaning to that Great White North name. Here are some photos.

Photo above and the one below are of our back garden.


The dark eyed junko has fluffed up his feathers to keep warm.

The mourning dove has had some seeds to eat and now is having a nice nap .

There are two dark eyed Junkos perched on the star magnolia. Can you find them?
Well the snowing finally stopped today (Friday December 16) and the snow plow made it down our road. But even when the road was plowed there was only one car that drove down the road. We don’t live on a busy street but usually there is more than one car between 8 am and 9 am. I decided I would stay in for a second day. It is not so cold just one degree above freezing but the roads are a mess and now there is a thick fog. This week Cee’s Midweek Madness challenge is the Violet or White. Well no violet here but more than enough WHITE!
It’s winter in Canada eh! The Great White North.
I am editing in a photo update. Some blue sky has appeared!!

I’d love to hear from you!
