Our Northwest Coast January

{ by the chilly ocean inlet }

{ young pinecones }

{ best friends romp through the frost as afternoon becomes evening }

{ grumpy crows squabble from telephone wires }

{ Miles adeptly manoeuvres through frost-covered mud }

{ who can complain about a 4pm sunset when it looks like this? }

{ Ziggy listens to hibernating-squirrel-chatter from the trees }

{ we have seen several great blue herons in the past few days }
