Stocking Up

Every now and then I like to do a “On this Day in History” on my photo library.  I didn’t happen to have a 10/29/2011 image in my library so I skipped ahead to the next day I did have – 10/30/2011. 

This grouse was sitting in our crab apple tree in the rain/snow packing away as many crab apples as it could without compromising its ability to fly.  In contrast to this year, that same tree doesn’t have a single crab apple on it due in large part to the incredibly dry summer we had this year.  As for the rain and snow…. the day isn’t over yet.
