Wildlife on the Mountain...

30 degrees outside - 8:17pm - clear, cold, winter night...

Over the Thanksgiving weekend the temperature hit a low of 8 degrees outside and the snow hit a high of about two feet.  The temperature has warmed up a bit so some of the snow has melted leaving about fourteen inches on the ground.

Now that the snow is here we haven’t seen as much wildlife around.  We still catch a glimpse now and then, like the young buck trudging through the snow in the backyard or the porcupine walking along the driveway.
