Thank you for all your comments and fav's on my eagle shots from yesterday. It truly was amazing to see so many. Almost a year ago I saw 13 on the front side of our property: http://365project.org/kwind/365/2013-03-16
What a crazy day!! We woke at 5:30am to watch the end of the gold medal hockey game (Yeah, Canada!) and it was snowing. 5cm of snow was forecast but it snowed ALL day and we now have a solid 15cm here at sea level! We left the house at 8:45am to help my best friend move. I got stuck in the snow at one point and had to turn around and find another route! At her higher elevated house there is more like 25cm! We arrived home at 4:30pm and shovelled a path through our LONG driveway. I only managed a couple of shots today. This is taken from my front door looking towards the front of our house. We're located off the old island highway and get a fair amount of traffic passing by. The road is poorly lit and it is very difficult to see our driveway so my husband and I wrapped these four large trees with lights. I thought they looked pretty covered in snow. I did nothing to make the sky that colour. It was just dark out as I took the shot.
Yep, truly magical! Despite all the trials and tribulations of driving in the snow, it must be so incredible to approach your place looking at these trees wrapped in lights.
Congratulations, Canada ; )
