December 17 and 18, plus snowy owl

[asakiyume]

A snowstorm is expected today, so yesterday I only felt like doing something kind of perfunctory, so I did these very standard Christmas bells.



But then this morning I woke up and ... no snow. No snow expected until after noon. Well, I couldn't do *two* perfunctory pictures, so I did one I'd been saving up: a blue jay.



And here, unrelated to the Advent calendar, is a sweet photo from the Daily Hampshire Gazette, a local paper: a snowy owl ^_^ What an armful!

Your bells do not look perfunctory.

Love owl.

Want snow.

Our snow ended up mainly--almost entirely--rain here too. Which means the driveway is clear for a drawing today ;-)

Thanks re: bells--I guess in the end I like them, too; I think part of what made me feel that way was the it's kind of a standard image. But that's okay, right? I think it's good to have a mix of standard and novel.

I love the owl too

Rain. *sigh* It's so wet. So full of water. *sigh*
