Tracks today: Coyote (right), coming up.
Bobcat (left), going down.
Mine in the middle (up & down).
And those others - also in the middle, are from a young rabbit!
One of the joys of winter in a forest, to see what neighbours are around. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ

โ€” Happy Winter Solstice โ€”
If you've followed me for a few years, you will know the winter solstice is a happy day for me - daylight gets longer from here, which means my power/electricity gets better. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Šโ˜€๏ธ

Waving to you from Nova Scotia, Canada!! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Itโ€™s rare for me to see animal tracks, without snow.
Seeing the tracks in snow is a favourite of mine, and one of the joys of winter.
Today I found this large deer track at the top of my lane way - near the house. ๐ŸฆŒ

Always happy to see what neighbours I have around! ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ

Reflecting today on how grateful I am, to still be living here in this forest, with all the forest animals who also live here, for 15 years nowโ—๏ธ๐Ÿ™
Itโ€™s not been easyโ€ฆ
- I donโ€™t drive
- Thereโ€™s no running water
- Exclusively solar powered for my electricity
- Wood stove for winter heating

Not bad, for a big city gal! ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ

Itโ€™s extremely dry here, after months without significant rain.

A young, energetic skunk bounced across the path I was on - about 10 feet away. ๐Ÿฆจ
It jumped up and down a few times, and then went in its wayโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ
Too quick a visit for a picture, but love how comfortable it was with me so close - no sign of fear or this would have been a smelly story. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜‚
