{ Bitter cold days }

The windows are opened early in the morning, to let the crisp air come in and refresh the house, but with it comes a bitter cold enveloped in ice, that chills you to the core.

 

But as I always say, winter is beautiful, it is magical and when that ice sits on the grass or the branches of trees, it twinkles in the sunshine, as if it were rare diamonds.  I love that!

 

So I thought I would show you what the bitter cold days have been like around here.

 

I know many of you are dealing with really cold temperatures and snow already, so this probably looks very mild in comparison to your area, but keep in mind we are in Texas.  Hahahah

 

I do love Winter, and funny enough as I have grown older, I have started disliking sunny, hot days and much prefer a cold, dreary, cloudy or rainy and snowy day.  Maybe I'm losing my mind, but that is how I feel lately.

 

I caught this grackle mid flight and just absolutely love how it turned out.  Aren't birds just majestic when they fly?  I still get amazed at how just a simple flat of a wing can bring this small animal to flight.

I hope wherever you are, that you are staying warm and safe.
