forsaken!












.................

oh Phil!
oh Willie!
oh Sam!

why have you forsaken us?!

yes, it's true.
the groundhogs Punxsutawney Phil, Wiarton Willie, and Shubenacadie Sam (famous groundhog day groundhogs in this little part of the world) have all seen their shadows this morning, forecasting 6 more weeks of winter! alas!

and although really i'd prefer spring to begin tomorrow, shadows sure can be lovely.
here are some to honour our little furry shadow-seeing friends.

6 more weeks!
hang in there, nicies.

    You're funny! I was wondering "Who are Phil, Willie and Sam?" from your tweet! Nice shadow, btw.

    WOW! What amazing finds! I do have to tell you though that our local groundhog did not see his shadow...yeah for spring!

    I know the movie Groundhog day, but I never knew what it really means :) It's a nice story-legend.
    If I look out of the window, then I think we'll have winter even longer than only 6 weeks. We just had over 30cm fresh snow last night and it still keeps falling. :)

    Beautiful pictures!
