"Lynn, those things don't look floofy or furry or warm. What
kinda animals are they? I don't see any kitties and I know I would
not be out in that cold!"

at home one cold day to see the Winter Festival in
a neighboring town. There were lot of ice statues in front
of the small businesses. A few food trucks in the area
and a few window watchers along. We went to get out
for a bit. We've gone before when it was so
warm they were melting. Not this year!
I did go into the shoe store and get a new pair of
hiking boots. This store is the Real McCoy. Run by the
same family for decades.
The door is inset and the side display windows
hold lots of shoes. The shelves run up to the tin
ceiling on two walls.

| Screech Owl This owl has been in and out of the bird/squirrel box a few times this winter. The song birds sometimes let us know she's in there during the day by mobbing her entrance. Thank you for stopping by for a visit and a comment. It is much appreciated. |

Oh! Wow! Those statues look great...especially the
eagle...The penguin made me laugh..how does 'ALL'
the fish he eats, stay in his tummy...! :).
The owl looks funny to...must be a baby one, to fit
inside a bird box, the song birds need'nt worry, it'll
grow quite quickly, and then they can have their bird
box back....HeHe! Bless! :O).

Thank you very much. These ice sculptures are absolutely magnificent.
Nice walk that calls for a comfortable armchair for dessert.
Hug for you

Those ice statues look great. Very often during cruises some of the galley staff make them. They carve them with various size knives though.
It is always good to get back home to the warm and to Precious who patiently awaits your return.
That is a lovely photo of the owl. He/she has found a good place to shelter.
The ice statues are terrific! What fun, to get out and away for a bit. The new hiking boots are a bonus!
Precious, you have some pretty awesome kitty TV to watch, with that owl!
Stay warm and cosy!
P. S. When I got up this morning, I checked the weather app on my phone right away, looked, and said out loud, "Oh, it's mild out." It speaks volumes when that's my first reaction to minus 4C, windchill minus 11C. 🙄😄
The penguin is my favourite, of course. Nice to get some new boots and even nicer to get back again to Precious and a warm home.
Our town had an ice sculpture fair, but these were carved by dudes with all manner of tools. It was bitterly cold, so I made the circuit and got back into my warm car!
That's a screech owl; love their hoots!
Those are very nice ice sculptures but warm inside the house is always best sweet Precious! That owl is a hoot.
Precious thank you for giving Lynn your prior approval to visit the ice sculptures. They are beautiful. MOL MOL waiting does make one hungry.
I don't think I've seen a screech owl box around here. Too urban I guess.
Hugs and Happy weekend. I know you are eager to use you new hiking boots
