Winter Residents

A couple of the winter birds I feed: a very territorial Anna's hummingbird and a Pine siskin.

My bush thinks it's Christmas

This shrub in my garden is sporting red and green. The leaves regularly turn bright red in the fall and the red berries are always prolific. Today I noticed green leaves too.

It's beginning to look like Christmas.
 

Frost

 I love the intricate design of frost.

December Dawn

It was wonderful to see some color this morning after record rainfall in November. iPhone photos of Mt. Rainier from Oak Harbor

Colorful November Sunrise

Successive iPhone photos of the sunrise in Oak Harbor this morning. A panorama with Mt. Rainer to the right, the North Cascades at the left and a streetlight in between.

Then the clouds were alight with color.

The clouds remained aglow even as I continued on my morning walk.
