More Snow in January

We have had a lot of snow this winter.  In January the trend continued.  Dickson Creek was covered in the tracks of the animals using the frozen creek for a highway up and down the bluff.

Near Coal Creek a couple of deer were grazing in the snow.

A cardinal singing made me think of spring, in spite of the blanket of snow.

I stopped to take a photo of the tree on Prairie Road, just before the final turn to IL 78.
