3 Benches....

....set at the perfect spot for watching the wildlife enjoying the pond--when the pond isn't covered in snow, that is! Right now, you'd never even guess that there's water in front of the benches, as Mother Nature has camouflaged it completely! 
The sun came out this afternoon, & everything looks so much brighter when the light reflects on the snow.  We even managed to reach 10 degrees (F) today! Brrrr! :)
