Another snowstorm in Philly. It snowed six inches in 8 hours. The land is blanketed in snow and the bird feeders are bustling with activity. I went in my garden and looked for colorful leaves glistening against the snow.

We’re preparing for another cold snap here… but no snow for the Willamette Valley forecasted with certainty…yet!
I went in search for precursors to spring today after my sister texted a big snow photo from Ambler, PA. Thought they might cheer her up. 🙂
Thanks for the comment. We are between snowstorms here in Philly. The next one is due Wednesday night – six inches predicted.
