Our southern deck
...on the morning of Feb 27th. Before this latest event, there was no snow on the beams and railings, and the table only had about 3" left.

Feeding time
It was snowing again...but none was showing on the radar. As a matter of fact, most of the snow we have gotten this go around hasn't shown on the radar. Nor has it been officially counted. The best I can interpret they say we got about 3-4" since the 24th. As you will see, we will have easily gotten 12+" by Feb 28th.

Spikey and Wild Turkey
They couldn't find the corn that was buried beneath the snow. Frank had not put out the morning supply when they showed up.

It starts all over again
It started snowing the evening of Feb 24th. Prior to that the snow had fallen off all of the branches, the deck beams and railings. Our drive still had a substantial covering of ice, but most of the snow had melted. Spikey and the turkey seem to be having a stand-off.

Captive Adirondack
The seemingly perpetual ice has become one with the chair beneath the overhang.

Snow is sticking around
We have had so many winter storms I have now lost track of the numbers. For the most part, we have had snow on the ground for the whole month of February as you will see.

Queenie and her youngsters
Most of the recent storm has now passed, but we are still getting flurries. And it appears that we will for the foreseeable future.

She's so cute...
And so far our efforts appear to be helping...all of our herd seems to be doing fairly well considering all they have been through so far this winter.

Carolina Wren and Hairy Woodpecker
The suet will last a little while longer. I need to go refill it now (Feb 12th).

Wild Tom Turkey
I managed to catch him before he left the frame.

Lots of Wild Turkeys
We actually had 16 here at this time, but they never, ever stand still for a group photo. Perhaps this little snippet will give you the idea.

Later that evening...
It rained first, and then the second snow came. A lot of the snow had slid off of the roof the night before (or was it two nights ago, I've lost track). There were really a lot creepy sounding noises in the night, but thank goodness we didn't lost power this time.
