A Bit of Snow and A Visitor

We got a little snow shower last night, about 1 1/2 inches but it sure turned cold.  It went down to 15 below zero last night and it was even chilly in the house.

This morning the walkway and patio were covered with snow and this evidence of our nighttime visitor.

The prints are pretty long, about 14 inches in length and I was surprised to learn, from my hubby, that they are rabbit prints.

He said they appear so long because the rabbit pushes off with his hind feet and sort of drags them in the snow. 

15 below makes me feel a bit sorry for the furry fellow but I sure am glad it was him outside and not me!
