Total Lunar Eclipse

This is as much as I got to see.
Totality occurred after moonset here.

Icicles on Tuesday

Tonight the called-for low is four (4!) degrees Fahrenheit.
Too cold for me, but great for icicles.

Goldfinch in the Maximillian sunflowers

Snowed out Monday, though little to no snow in Albuquerque.
Watched this little fellow working the seedheads over thoroughly.



These wonderful flowers keep giving even after blooming.

That big ol' moon

There'll be lots of light tonight.

Here's the moon with a little more zoom.

Good cat, bad cat

His own winsome self at the garden gate

and wicked little Sammy, destroying the upholstery

More cranes

Taken at sunset -- that's why they have that rosy glow.

The day it got really cold

This is what the sky looked like. I was outside wrapping pipes.
