Only a few days ago I was celebrating Spring with the melt happening then look what I woke up to this morning...
Snowy Scene From Outside My Bedroom Window
We had six inches of snow! Replacing all that snow that had melted - yike!
This was scene from my front deck -

Of course it didn't phase Bruno - he loves snow!

It was the funniest thing - because the snow was so wet and sticky, Bruno's log that he likes playing with became a big snow ball so Bruno had a big snowball to roll around. He had me chuckling!

He was rolling in the fresh snow too but I wasn't quick enough to catch that but I did catch him running through the snow...

As for JJ it was a different story. Thinking it was just like the other days being warm and having the snow melting he went out the back door that goes onto the covered porch. He was a little shocked to see all the snow back so he scurried to the front porch to be let in when he saw me out there.

At the bird feeder you see in the above photo the woodpecker and Bluejays had come around for a feed. I was happy I had a big pile of sunflower seeds for them for a big covering of snow like this makes it harder for them to find food.

The woodpecker was also looking for bugs under the bark of the maple trees

The redpolls were still around but not as active and all the seed on the ground was covered with snow so they had to wait their turn to get on the feeder

This was the view from the other side of the deck with the tree branches bowing down beneath the weight of the snow.

This was the view off my back porch looking towards the hoop house - you can see the big flakes of snow starting to fall.

The other side of the house the lights from the sun room made for a warm glow contrasting the cold snow.

The next photo I took with the creative filter on my camera which really highlighted the fresh snow

Then the snow flakes got really big as you can see in the photos below...

Needless to say we didn't walk to far in that deep snow for it was hard going because the snow was so wet and heavy.
I'm throwing this picture for the Show Me a Photo Contest put on by @nelinoeva that had a theme of BIRDS WITH HUMANMADE THINGS details here that was taken before the snowfall
