It's so nice to have some color outside! The tulips and other bulbs are all coming up, and there are signs of other annuals popping up.
Here's a closer look of the little monster as he explores the tree and tries to get at those birds. It's hard to believe that it has already been about one year since Romeo arrived in the yard and has made it his new home. Although he is not the biggest kitty (Houdini is huge compared to the other 2) he is very fit, active and loves his creature comforts. 
Try as he might, Romeo can't get high enough to catch those pesky pigeons (and as you can see there are a couple of dozen of them up on the wires). Just wait until spring... I have the feeling he will be scaring them off (or worse) once the snow is gone. 
Angelina is finding it hard to get around all the white stuff and is pretty much ready for spring as well... it's March right? 
All of us are pretty much getting to the point of being so tired of winter and eager for spring, and Houdini is less than thrilled by even more snow. Not only have we had the winter with the most amount of snow in ages, we have had the most amount of snow for a February in years and started March off with even more, and the threat of another big storm this week.
Romeo is a little confused as to why there is a tunnel in the backyard now that leads to the bird feeders. There is a good 4 feet of snow accumulated in the backyard now and the entire jungle is under a thick blanket of snow. 
Yesterday we got hit with a huge winter storm, including an experience that I have never had before, thunder and lightning during the storm. We got a good 40 cm of blowing snow and to say the least, things are pretty snowed in. 
Romeo was hesitant the first day, but had now been running around the yard and sliding in the snow like a little kid. 
Angelina is less than thrilled with all this white stuff, and is cautiously making her way around the yard. Atleast it's really easy to find the monsters in the snow. 
The boys are checking out the change in the yard as we got dumped on with a huge first snow storm of the season. Of course their first point of interest is the area around the bird feeders... My sister sent me this video.... and who ever did this must have a cat as it is pretty much how Romeo tries to get us up each morning to be fed... more or less...
