You Capture / Outside

I blame Beth for our snow storm this week.
It came just in time for the You Capture assignment

It seemed like everytime I went outside (which was seldom)
I saw these poor babies trying to keep warm.
The blur in the background is the snow whipping around at 40 mph or so.

I felt so sorry for these guys.
If I could, I would have brought them inside to warm up.
I saw lots of snow drifts.

This poor baby could hardly stand up against the wind.
He sure wasn't thinking about using this birdbath.
The one picture that I missed was so cool. We were driving home from my mom's in the beginnings of the storm. All I was thinking about was getting home safely at the time. After we got home, I realized what I missed. In the open fields when the winds were blowing like crazy, there were snow funnels whipping around. My daughter called them "snownadoes".
They were really cool, but I missed them. That's what I get for being a big chicken.
If you go check at Beth's, maybe somebody there got them.
