snowy daffodils!

"The trouble with weather forecasting is that it's right too often for us to ignore it and wrong too often for us to rely on it"  ~ Patrick Young
One minute we were enjoying the daffodils and counting our blessings for a bright and mild Winter...
 
... and then THIS happened!
 






... can you spot Mr Bingley ...


.. and here is Mr Darcy venturing forth..!


... arctic cat ..
 
.. but then returned (with snow clods in his paw pads)...


Mr Bingley
... inside watching from the window ...



.. and that is enough snow for today...

  1. Loved this posting... from the too-welcome sight of bright yellow daffies in their blue pot all the way through the wintery scenes to where the lads have called it a day!

    Lots of glimpses of heaven.......

  6. Holy moly! Look at all that white stuff! And you guys are very brave to venture out into it!! The weather has been so wacky lately. We usually have snow at this time of year, but lately we've had mild temps and sunshine! We're not complaining.

  7. Lovely shots, at least it looks like the "perfect" winter, we think. Fluffy snow, all clean and pretty. :-)

    Stay cosy and warm. Drink plenty of Hot Chocolate (humans that is!) and I hope you can stay sane whilst being housebound !

  15. Wow, that is a lot of snow, Darcy and Bingley! That last picture just about says it all ... exploring out in the cold is exhausting, isn't it? Stay warm, dear friends!

  16. We love all you bird houses as they appear especially inviting surrounded by crisp snow.
    Boys, you may be part polar bear with your ease in snow and camouflage ability!

    P.S. We love the last picture of the two explorers after a full day...

  17. Incredible as it seems, it is the same here! Thanks very much for entering my giveaway.

    From a very snowy household including a dog with snow balls along her whole underside, not just in her paws,

  19. We think Mr. Bingley had the perfect place underneath the chair seat to sit and enjoy the snow. What terrific pictures you got of the cats in the snow. Hugs and nose kisses

  20. That is a lot of snow you had. We are having warm weather but the forecast said it'll be cold this weekend. Maybe not too cold to have snow though.
    I love the last photo..it looks like Mr Darcy and Mr Bingley are enjoying being inside, relaxed and warm :-)
