More snow pictures...

Here's a couple more photos I took this morning.  Doesn't look like it's letting up at all.  David said there were several inches snow on his truck when he got off work this morning.
This first photo is from out back deck.  The other is from our front door, looking across the street at one of our neighbor's house.

Lake photos...

 The Corp of Engineers has the lake way down... Pool Elevation of 255 feet.  Normal is about 300'.  They're supposed to raising it back up some time this month.  It looks much better when there's no stumps or islands out there.  The cypress trees look odd, especially that one with the Cormorants in it. 

This is closer to the bank...  There were a lot of gulls that day,  but I wasn't fast enough with my camera to get more than these two in the picture.
The overall picture is really nice.  We can hear fish jumping in the water...  At times, we can hear an eagle screeching... Or see one sitting in the top of an old tree out in the lake...  There's white pelicans... all sorts of ducks.  Several years ago, my oldest son and I did some bird watching... In just a few months we spotted about 30 different birds around our house.  I got pictures of quite a few.  Maybe later, when I have some time, I'll post those pictures.
