I seen a neat idea on Facebook that I thought would be fun to try. After further thinking I thought I would also share it here as many members don't experience such seasonal differences as this area.
The goal is to take photos of the same view once a month. I've chosen three views around the acreage that I think will help show the differences that seasons and weather can bring. Each photo will have different tidbits for recent happenings and changes shown, current weather and any other interesting things I think up, like which animals photo bombed! Feel free to ask questions or speak away, I'm hardly going to hold this to a photo only thread (Like I could on here
)

Recent weather was very cold in December, think -30's with wind chills in the -40s, and snow. Finally the world is white again! Began warming up with the New Year and it's nice to go outside again
The Front Yard - Here you can see Conn's highway out to his patrol route as well as random spots where he's decided to sleep and melted into the snow
The Field Across the Road - I'm hoping this view will show a nice variety of crops as the year goes on (and crop growth!). Right now it's just canola stubble.
The Back Pond - This little dip is a water collector when the water table is high here. It should give a good example of how much rain we get this year. Sassy, the horse, likes it as she has a good view across the field towards the neighbours cows. Willow is my new puppy and she hasn't been back there yet so it was all a new view to her!
