Winter visitors in our garden ā˜ƒļøšŸŒ³šŸŒ² ~ WednesdayWalk

in #hive-194913 ā€¢ yesterday

Hi all šŸ‘‹šŸ»

Join me today as we walk around our garden to discover some of the visitors that visited us over the last 2 weeks. As you all know we got the first snow on 1 November alreadyā€¦ it had defrosted a little bit, but this week we get about 1/2 meter more snow again. ā˜ƒļøšŸ˜ Yesterday and today it is snowing a lot šŸŒØļøšŸŒØļøšŸŒØļø I love it!

Did you miss ā˜ŗļø my FIRST SNOW post?
Check it out here: ā˜ƒļø FIRST SNOW OF THE SEASON ~ come and check out how it became 9 CM of SNOW ā„ļø on 1 November 2024

With this post Iā€™m joining in at the Wednesday Walk challenge. That is hosted by @tattoodjay every week on Wednesday.

ā€¼ļøHave a look: Here in the Wednesday Walk Community if you want to join in!ā€¦ the community is run by @tattoodjay.
Look at his last #Wednesdaywalk post.
It will tell you also the rules of joining at the Wednesday walk posts šŸ˜ come join us! It is fun!

Todayā€™s photographic selection will be of 24 PHOTOGRAPHS.
Dates: between 8 November until today 20 November 2024.
I will follow the time stamps on them. So it looks like you are experiencing my #adventures on this #walk, to šŸ’ƒšŸ»šŸ’ƒšŸ»šŸ’ƒšŸ» #discover everything what I saw, like the little #details seen through my eyes.

Wrap up warm and come alongā€¦ ā„ļøā˜ƒļø

We will walk along the back of our cabin towards the veggie gardenā€¦
We see a #track šŸ¾šŸ¾šŸ¾ #paw #prints in the #snow. Here the snow was about 8 cm deep.

We look at the strawberry path šŸ“šŸ“šŸ“ some plants are peeking šŸ«£ through the snow ā„ļø

As we follow the #tracks šŸ¾šŸ¾šŸ¾šŸ¾ we see it is larger than a cat šŸˆ, I would say a medium large feline. Maybe the lynx again? I had not seen any evidence of it visiting our garden. Although I did discover last winter its tracks up the mountain behind our cabin in the forest. Maybe you remember that post šŸ˜Š

My footprint šŸ‘£ next to it. Size 37ā€¦

This was 8 November šŸ¾šŸ¾šŸ¾

Looking over the strawberry patch again. Canā€™t wait till spring as I have rejuvenated the 3 rows, so I hope to get lots of strawberries šŸ“ next season.

Walking through the garden on 12 Novemberā€¦ yesā€¦ we can jump between days in this walk šŸ˜‰
We see a large bird visited our garden.

The feline tracks from a few days ago are also still visibleā€¦ the snow slowly defrosts. We have temperatures from around 8 degrees but the ground is still frosty and very cold šŸ„¶
I like these foot printsā€¦ they are cool šŸ˜Ž šŸ¦…šŸ¦ā€ā¬›šŸ¦…šŸ¦ā€ā¬›

In the evening we see sparkles āœØ everywhere along the icy drive wayā€¦. The #ice šŸ§Š and snow is glisteringā€¦ it was hard to capture but I managed šŸ˜Š

On 16 November we had some new visitors. A eurasian jay found our bird feedersā€¦ he is sitting on the ground to search for all the fallen nuts and sunflower seeds. šŸ˜Š
His foot prints are not big enough for the ones I saw on the other side of the gardenā€¦

The bull finches are always here. Summer or winter. I counted about 6 couples in the last weeks. So there are coming more and more šŸ„°

This cutie is also joining his friends šŸ˜Š last Monday

I have been busy on 18 Novemberā€¦ I have put up some lights and these twinkle lights āœØāœØāœØ are on the entrance side to dress up for the season. It also gives us a bit more light as it is already dark at 14:30h now.

We wander further and look at our tree with the bird feeders in itā€¦ this was yesterday morning. Loads of little visitors šŸ¦ā€ā¬›šŸ¤šŸŖ¶ enjoying their meal. I love watching them šŸ˜Š

So cute šŸ˜Š they are hungry with the cold and snowy days.

Some sparrows (4) joining the bullfinches. We see 3 males and one female bullfinch.

2 other visitorsā€¦.

At 1400h today it still is snowing šŸŒØļø the trees behind the cabin in our forest are getting a thick layer of snow on the branches šŸŒ²šŸŒ²šŸŒ²ā˜ƒļøā˜ƒļøā˜ƒļø

It is such a beautiful sight šŸ˜Š it feels like Christmas šŸŽ„

As you can see the snow is covering more and moreā€¦ building up a good layer again. Luckily our visitors keep coming.

Love it when I can capture them in motion šŸ¦ā€ā¬› oh I so wish I could invest in a bigger lens for my camera to capture them close upā€¦ but heyā€¦ life and such gets in the way currently and for a while I guess. šŸ«£

We walk further to the front and see how the colours change at 14:30h todayā€¦ soon it will be dark.

I just measured how much snow we have today and it is about 10 cm of snow at 15:18h on 20 Novemberā€¦ wooohhoooo ā˜ƒļø
Looking forward to more šŸŒØļøšŸŒØļøšŸŒØļø as I want to built some snowman ā›„ļø and snowanimalsā€¦


ā€¦and here I say thatā€™s all for todayā€™s post my friends.
Join me next time for more #updates, #adventures, #stories and #photographs šŸ˜ŽšŸ‘‹šŸ»

All the footprints of the visitors are lovely but seeing those gorgeous birds is even nicer :))

The lights are cosy, it already brings some Christmas vibes, and it is perfect in combination with the snow! šŸ‘Œ

The birds here are stunning, I love watching them. Saw even some woodpeckers and some bird of preys.

Thank you, I couldnā€™t wait any longer to make it more cozy āœØā˜ƒļø winter with snow just makes it magical and so christmassy šŸŽ„šŸŽ„
Have a nice evening šŸ‘‹šŸ»šŸ˜Š

A lot of visitors at your place, but with a free buffet, I can understand them... I can't believe all the snow you've already had, it doesn't even freeze at night here. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a white Christmas šŸ¤ž.

Have a wonderful day

Yes, they are so cool to figure out what has been around. The birds love it here hahaha šŸ¤£ I see so many different ones. Most migratory ones flew over already after a stop for food.
I just went out on the porchā€¦ the front door was rather snowed inā€¦ so far 15 cm new snow yesterday and last night, I guess it is deeper on the ground.
I hope you will get a snowy Christmas šŸŽ„ I know for sure we will have snow until June now šŸ˜Ž

Have a great day šŸ‘‹šŸ»

As we follow the #tracks šŸ¾šŸ¾šŸ¾šŸ¾ we see it is larger than a cat šŸˆ, I would say a medium large feline. Maybe the lynx again? I had not seen any evidence of it visiting our garden. Although I did discover last winter its tracks up the mountain behind our cabin in the forest.

An outside camera with motion sensor probably would worth the investment.

Probably it would give you a few surprise photos and videos.

Maybe it would record other animals too from time to time.

For example foxes, raccoons, etc.

I was planning to get one for sure. Would love to know what crawls around the cabin.
We donā€™t have raccoons šŸ¦ here but bears, fox, lynx etc we do.

Have a wonderful day šŸ‘‹šŸ»šŸ˜Š

EU haha us Americans have trouble relating. Very cool footprints though. We have bobcats and supposedly some mountain lions but I have only seen bobcats. There are lynx a little farther north. Its always big news when a lynx wonders this far south. I guess I shouldn't complain about it being dark at 4pm šŸ˜†

Forgotā€¦ it is 6,5 US Size in my shoes šŸ˜Š
Thatā€™s very cool too. I wish I would see them one day. I am seriously considering a wildlife cam.
It getā€™s shorter and shorter for the next weeks. Will keep an eye on how much light we have in the hight of the winter.
Have a wonderful day šŸ‘‹šŸ»

It's already dark at 14:30? Wow I wonder how the likes of me that work out will cope when they have to work shorter hours because it gets dark at 14:40. Just wondering šŸ¤”

The light decoration is beautiful, the birds amd the entire winter sight šŸ˜

!PIZZA

And it only gets darker earlierā€¦ dark here is truly dark, pitch black. One canā€™t see anything as there are no lights or light pollution outside. I think we will go as short as only 4 hours of lightā€¦ will know soon.
People that work or drive outside have a lot of big lights on their vehicles. To drive or work. No other way to do it.

Thank you so much Joe, I just measured the snow on the porchā€¦ it is now 15cm deep. On the ground it is deeperā€¦ but I didnā€™t want to go further as it is stormy with heavy winds right now. ā˜ƒļøā„ļøšŸŒØļøšŸŽ„

Have a good evening!

I better get my bird feeder in better shape, I have a line of Blue Jays to keep fed and coming by my window each year if I don't. I was told we had a tiny snowfall the other night. I missed it, It was already gone before I or most local around here noticed it. It's after 10 pm, and 6 Celsius. Snow is rare in the Southwest coast of Canada at this time of the year.
A wet Christmas is expected much more here than a white one šŸ˜„

How wonderful they come to your placeā€¦ they will love the food.
Yes, I read. Also England had a dusting of snow.
Here it is white since the first of November.
Last night we had 15cm of snowfall again. I just measured the balustrade on the porch.
We get about half a meter this week. Will be interesting.
I havenā€™t had many white Christmas days but hereā€¦ for sure it will be white.

I hope it wonā€™t be too wet at yours. Maybe even a white one this year as the weather is so different lately, who knows šŸ˜

Have a wonderful day šŸ‘‹šŸ»

What great shots! I'm from the Midwest USA and thought that living in the Middle East I would be glad to do without the snow this year... Instead I miss it (although I do NOT miss shoveling). It was nice to get a taste of winter in your post, I've always appreciated animal tracks in the snow a whole lot šŸ˜

Hey, the other day you mentioned that you and your husband have had to move all around to be able to reside in the same country, have you ever written a post about your experience with that? Would love to read about your journey!
