january cold

 yesterday after school. lots of tracks in front of the barn, temporary visitors

 the cold was coming on, it's pretty cold today.

 a nest is built here every year, or improved if it hasn't fallen. 

the chicks aren't bothered by the bees? 

 some icicles for jude, they form on the wild grapevine and virginia creeper on the barn

 there were prints in the barn, too, but the wild animals that visit are savvy and avoid the rotted flooring that hannah's friend put her foot through!

this is actually one of the barn's basement windows. it's how i felt on friday, the end of a hectic, difficult week at school.
