Well after the storm blew through we were left with plenty of driftage. We ended
up with 12-14 inches and much more in the drifts. I went out last night to clear
the 50 yard drive driveway so I could get out to an early appointment. The snow
ploughs had taken a big dump across the bottom of the drive as usual but the
Outback just drove through it. When I got back I fired up the snowblower again
and removed the 6 inches or so that fell last night. I started to clear my
neighbors drive but the knobbly tire came off the rim which prevented me from
doing more.
On my way up the lane this morning I spread some seed out for the
Horned Larks. This paid off when I drove back as there were 50+ in the field. By
midday this had increased to 100+ along with at least 2 Lapland Longspurs. I
didn't get many shots as there was a very active Merlin chasing them around.
I'll go up later and have another go if it brightens up a bit.
