This is an "icy" day so far, in western Massachusetts.
There was a fairly small amount of snow that fell but today there is plenty of ice.
Ice is scary.
There is always the danger of slipping and falling, without the ability to get up, not to mention breaking a hip.
So, it's better to wait until the temperatures warm up a bit before trudging out to clean off the snow and ice-covered car.
I imagine the branches of nearby trees are ice-covered, too.
What do the birds do in that case?
Do they just hunker down in their winter nests, like humans stick to their homes?
Hmmmmm. I'm not so sure of the answer to that one.
I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday.

Isn’t it something how ice can be so dangerous but also can be beautiful. It’s best to stay inside if you don’t have any place to be.
As for the birds, I’m sure their instincts have them hunkering down in their nests.
Yes, hard icy snow is not my favorite of the snows. We had an icy snow a few days after the soft snow, and that's when it piled up and was difficult to get in the car. But somehow we manage. Yes, I feel for the birds when it's so cold out. And I feel bad for the workers who have to go to work on a snow day! I hope the warmth of the sun can clear some of that icy snow for you, Susan.

Weather is horrible in so many states this week so I'm very happy to live where I do and do not ever have to face ice or snow unless I venture out to the local mountains. STAY SAFE
