-5

We are cold again. -5 this morning just as the new day breaks. Animal tracks are everywhere. Those snowshoes rabbits have at least a six foot span between hops--the fox tracks are following so I'm sure there was a reason for it's hurried departure. I have a lot bigger tracks also and it looks like the coyote was here also. Sandy has heard them gently calling her female dogs to come out at night. It must be a lonely young male looking for a friend. I love the sounds of this part of the state. The waves rolling in, the crunching of the ice as the current moves it. The sounds of the animals and the birds searching for food and just existing to give us a sense of wonder in this busy life. It is a calming and restful thing. Have a great day!
