Amherst got hit hard with a major ice storm yesterday and overnight. We lost power around 9, and luckily regained it by 7 this morning. Everything is covered in ice - a total skating rink outside.
The trees are heavy with a thick coating of ice.
This male downy woodpecker was undisturbed by my presence on the back deck taking pictures. Even though I was only inches away, his only concern appeared to be that I may have been interested in sharing his suet ball.
Home sweet home isn't looking too cosy at the moment.
The UPS man arrived in the middle of all the ice to pick up the Log Canada quilt - unbelievable! He said most of the town is still without power; we are very grateful to be among the few who are not inconvenienced by this storm.
