Winter is a study in #HalfTones
One must have an #Eye for them or go #Lonely.
Trees, #Skies, & even the ...#Colors of #Winter #Birds & little #Mammals are all subdued...
Now #One may make #Friends with #Owls & #Mice,
with the different colored stems of #Willows... & #Sassafras...
with the #Berries that the #Birds seek out,
with the #Bark of #Trees & the #Prints of the #Fourfooted.
