Winter Solstice

Winter officially began about 17 minutes ago (6:03 pm).  I had hoped to show the sky today, but it was a dull gray the entire day.  There were little snowflakes too and they didn't accumulate which is the best kind.  But this Tufted Titmouse had a feed at the windows.  Friends in for lunch.  Much laughter and always the missing of Sumner, but we kept her near with stories of her antics.  Have a look in large for a closer view.
