Dec.19,2009 Ice Crystals.
My son Jeff took this of me "unknowingly". My friend Ann came up from Toronto and we were birding Minesing. Was very cold and not to much was flying at this point. We could not refuse the opportunity to get out and photograph the beauty that mother nature had given us this morning. l put on my macro lens and got right into the ditch. The photos were awesome. These few shots are of frost gathered on little plants in the ditch. l was right on them as you can see. Could not believe the patterns the ice had formed here. Mother nature can be very magical. Everything glistened. It was a winter wonderland.

Out for a visit today and on route were lucky to come across a couple snowies,northern shrike and kestrel.
A few snow buntings flew by and right past this snowy owl. Did not seem at all interested in them though.
Northern shrike in flight.
This beautiful male kestrel was sitting on a wire. Was not camera shy at all. My son Jeff took this hot for me out of the car window.

My red bellied woodpecker sitting in the tree's while the winter breeze is blowing.
Female red bellied at the feeder.
Male red bellied at the feeder with a starling looking on. Was a bit of an aggression but the red bellied stood his ground.
My first snowy of the year. She was hunkered down in the field way out there the day before a good snow storm.

Vindy,Our last days with her. Our precious baby,November,2009
Vindy came to us 8 years ago as a rescue dog. She was found in the middle of the road wet and starving all curled up in a thunder storm. She was thought to be about 3 years old but we didn't really know. Vindy became part of the Howard clan. After a few medical issues throughout the years. Vindy was always a joy,never asking for more than love and food. Loved her treats. And just loved life. Never to far away from any of us. Vindy developed heart issues last year and over time got worse. She was such a sweetheart. We knew it wouldn' t be long. And l think she did too. We did everything we could do. But then decided that medication was just hiding what was there and her quality of life would not be. She was clearly having problems. Then started having seizures too. It was time. It just got worse and she was telling me with her big beautiful eyes it was time. Nov. 17th at 11:20 am. Our vet came to the house and sat with us and her and we made the decision. She was ready. We could tell. We think she was about 10-11 years old. These next few photos are of Vindy and my son & husband and myself. And Max our husky. Who misses her dearly. His best bud. She is missed so very much by all of us. God bless her.!

Vindy,2009
My son Jeff & Vindy,Jeff is at college now and home on weekends. He spends a lot of time with his dogs when he is home. When he comes home this weekend it will be hard for him.
Vindy and her best bud Max.
A gentle breeze was blowing and caught her ears. The weather this month has been amazing and she was able to enjoy it as best she could.
Here she is perking up as the crows are calling. That always means that something is a miss. Vindy always knows there is a cat or a fox or something close by and always loved to call back if you will and go check out the yard . It was so cute.
My husband and l spending some precious moments with her on her last day with us.
