Getting closer to freeze up.

Pileated woodpecker holes,unlucky ants.

Getting colder, the river edges are beginning to freeze.

It always happens this way. A steady pull, back and forth between warm and cold. The past few days have been cold and snowy. By midweek, we are expecting rain. Back and forth.  Some of the smaller ponds are ice covered, the big lakes are still open, but that will be changing too. The cold will win out, it just takes time.
