Down to -6 last night, after getting 6” over the last few days. High of 26 today.
Cat is going stir-crazy, but we don’t need a vet bill for frost bitten feet.
The birds are all over the feeders, and they don’t need a cat harassing them, either.
Have a cottontail that is visiting the porch every night, probably because the front door is “warm”. Today, when I came back to the house from feeding the rabbits & chickens (6 eggs from 11 hens!) I brought down a large handful of hay, and a scoop of rabbit pellets for it.
At least with the snow, the garden is now properly mulched until Spring.
This is the time of year that I am glad I don’t have chickens LOL. Otherwise I would love it. This is the kind of weather where I like to have a fire in the fireplace, and I like to stay in the chair right next to it.LOL
Snow is a great mulch!
