Becky and John's House in West Linn - December 20 ...


December 21
Martha,
Here is what the bird house looks like this morning. We got about a foot of
snow capped in the night by about 1/2 inch of ice. Supposed to get more of
something later this afternoon.
Merry Christmas.
John

Martha,
More Artic Blast 2008, as the TV coverage would say.
I believe the first photo is a female Sharp Shinned Hawk - probably looking
for a small songbird for lunch. In the second photo, note that the fence
behind the pretty tree is 6" fee tall.

It has stopped snowing now but we ar looking at another storm coming into
the area on Christmas eve. All the kids and grandkids are here and Hicks
and Val are in the general area and should be here in the next hour.

Merry Christmas.
John
