Began to snow sometime overnight and continued for most of today. Not heavily, but wetly, and it made for a wintry landscape. Toward the end of the day I took a quick hike up Beech Hill, being towed as I was by two dogs.

But before we headed up the hill, I made everybody pause at the parking lot to listen and look for tree birds. Saw and heard a few—and that was about the size of it today.
