It's not even winter yet... technically. Sounds like my area will probably get 15-20cm. They're saying it will start noon today and go overnight.

Here's another picture, the park near work, they have a little skating path through it in the winter...

he doesn't look all that red in colour but i dunno if that's the photo.
i've only seen a red squirrel once in my life and i can't remember if that was in this country, if it was then it was on some island. glad i did tho as they're so rare now.

Nah, just a black one... we've got mostly black and grey here, although you do see the odd red one.
