Bear's Winter Home

Last week while we were skiing and snowshoeing in the woods behind the field we came across what may be a bear's den. We were making our own trail between the trees, and stumbled on a spot where the snow went down with no bottom - just a hole into darkness below.  We didn't stay long enough to explore ~ this was close to where bears have been spotted in the summer.

Winter Sun

Some mornings the sky out the front window is filled with color like at this sunrise not long ago.  This morning began another one of those days that could just as well be photographed in black and white ~ gray sky, white ground, black trees. There isn't much to take pictures of on days like this.
