Dust of Snow Without the Crow

 This photo captures what remains of yesterday's dusting of snow.  It is snowing again as I post this.  No crows around, so the snow might stay put for quite a while.
 In a nearby oak, a similar coating of the terminal branches made me contemplate my favorite summer attraction on this part of the oak trees, the Oak Treehoppers, which are now safely ensconced below the surface in the oaks' roots.  I always look forward to their reappearance in late summer or early fall.
