Photos from last Sunday when we had our first #snow of the season. A fairly mild to warm week and most of it is gone, with little bits in some shady spots. Today cloudy with chance of rain/thunderstorms (I'm doubtful) but another week forecast to be mostly above average.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 18 I didn't cut wood yesterday, so I went for a walk on the farm. Nippy at around -16C/3F (nowhere near record for this season) but beautiful after several days of fog #frost and #snow

After some extra weeks mostly without snow (good for cutting/stashing firewood in the bush, not so good for hauling) #SnowMother #SniegaMate has been bringing snow this week (several times, but not a lot, yet; and we'll hit +/- -20C in coming days) #CountryLiving #Pagan #Latvian #baltic #animism #Alberta #winter

I'm so late for #SixOnSaturday (last week's 😆 ) that it actually lands just about on the right day again...lol
Last week, around the #Solstice was much colder than now, but beautiful with that #MidWinter #light and a touch of fresh #snow So, I'll wish a #HappyNewYear to all (really just another slightly mis-placed solstice celebration anyway!) #SniegaMate #SnowMother #Saule #Sun #pagan #animist #Alberta @nature #GetOutside #SolaceInNature -
(see photos in main post) it was a warm week with daytime temperatures from 5 to nearly 15C, nights -5 to -10ish; cooling off starting yesterday- the real drop comes this week, with daytimes as low as -20C.
Pics are from Wednesday, when we'd had light #rain and a bit of #snow overnight- leading to #ice then #frost probably both #rime and #HoarFrost
A Black-capped Chickadee /Poecile atricapillus came to watch me

Traditionally, winter begins mid-point btwn Autumn Equinox/Winter Solstice so we're right on schedule! #AutumnSpirits like #LapuMate (#Latvian Leaf Mother) have given way to #WinterSpirits like #SniegaMate (Snow Mother) and the #TimeOfSpirits- as with #Samhain and #AllHallows, the time when the barrier between living and dead thins, draws to a close. #animist #pagan #heathen -
