More snow drifting down. I shoveled out my mailbox after finding the mail truck had tried pushing through the drift and had had to back up out of it (after delivering yet another dover catalogue.) I see the southern side roof avalanched yesterday sometime.
This morning when I looked out the small hillside across the road was full of flickers of red. And then, a real red: a cardinal. All the rest, and there were many, were robins, a whole hillside of robins.
the snowy hillside
every branch is robin-filled
winter confusion.the snow is gentle.
a hillside full of robins
outshone by cardinals.
