These last five photos were posted yesterday evening, around 10:30 pm., but I am adding the weather forecast for today, 13 February 2022. Our temperature is 2°C (windchill -2°C) at 11:00 am this morning. Sunrise is at 7:53 am and sunset is at 5:48 pm. Snow is forecast for four of the days this coming week - wish I hadn't read that. We have been so lucky with milder weather recently; so mild that a lot of our snow has melted. March is said to be the snowiest month for Alberta, so spring is still weeks away.

The workmen are here again today - a Sunday, so I am surprised, but I guess they are trying to get the roof repaired before the new snow arrives tomorrow. If they are football lovers, I do hope they get home in time to watch the Superbowl later today.

Just a handful of images taken during a walk this morning, 12 February 2022, at the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary. A small group of us walked around the park in the sunshine. Not a huge number of species to be found, but it was good to see a Great Horned Owl, though it was not in a good place for photos. A sleepy Porcupine was a highlight for me, especially as I so rarely see one.

When I got home, I discovered that the repairmen were here again, continuing with repairs to the the roof. A mix of thuds and bumps for the afternoon.

Hopefully, I can start tomorrow to edit and post photos from yesterday's day drive, NE of the city. Only one bird was photographed, but, anyone who knows me, knows that old barns make me just as happy.
