Oiseau de proie: des suspects
"Les deux possibilités les plus probables sont autour d'Amérique (considérée comme une espèce distincte de l'autour des palombes depuis 2023) et faucon gerfaut (soit la forme grise, ou la forme sombre/brune), le paternel pense que c'est le second étant donné la grosseur perçue. Ce sont surtout les faucons et les éperviers qui chassent d'autres oiseaux, et peu d'entre eux restent l'hiver."
Alors voilà, on a une liste de prédateurs suspects.

Mystérieux oiseau de proie

Where's the snow?
Since we got back here from our holidays, there has been some snow early January, then nothing. As in: nothing. It's been quite disheartening. There were a few snow forecast, here and there, of course snow fell up North, but here in the South, nothing happened, even when there were chances of snow fall. As winter is passing through, way faster than I care for, I hope we will get some snow before long, like a proper snow day when we have to stay in. I say "I hope", but I am beyond hope now. I will believe it when I see it.

Neige et poudrerie au Québec
Bon, le titre est assez clair: il y a/aura de la neige et de la poudrerie au Québec, selon cet article de la grosse Presse. Enfin, dans l'est du Québec, car c'était déjà le cas dans le Sud. Ici, dans le sud de l'Angleterre, c'est à peine s'il y a eu des averses de neige. Et puis j'aimerais bien qu'il y en ait, même si les Anglais ne savent pas comment gérer ça. Et je suis conscient que ça fait à peine une semaine que je suis de retour ici, mais ça ne change rien: l'hiver québécois me manque toujours, surtout que j'en ai refait l'expérience pendant deux semaines.

Less of a post-Christmas blues
Well, here it is, Christmas is over and has been for a while. I am oficially in post-Christmas blues mode. I don't feel too bad about it, however, for a number of reasons. I am at home for one, so I am not feeling homesick. And it is a proper winter here, with snow and everything. So I feel like I experienced Christmas as it should be. I might feel different about it come January, but right now, I am just chilling and enjoying the moment, without having to stress about too many things just yet.

Christmas/Winter Wolfism
Here is one Wolfism from yesterday, as we were walking in the snow. Veggie Carrie was holding my arm to dear life, wobbly feet on snowy and icy grounds. I teased her, saying it must be her South African side. She used to do this when we ice skated together. Noticing Wolfie being far more comfortable, as if he's been living here his whole life, she said her son had definitely Québécois blood. Then came Wolfie's remark: "It's because I'm ice and fire!" Best Wolfism yet, I think.

Live from Winter Wonderland
If you were wondering about my silence: I am currently home with my family, with Wolfie and my wife. but back in Québec, in my parent's house. My brothers, my sister-in-law and our nephews are here too. So we are celebrating in the Saguenay region, it is snowy, we are having a proper, borderline ideal winter, otherwise doing as little as possible. Wolfie is very happy here, as he is with his cousins and in a wintery place. In fact, I can safely say that we are in a true winter wonderland, one of the last few on earth.

Bûche et bonhommes de neige
Photo prise encore une fois sur la page Facebook de Première Moisson. Ils font des bûches avec des bonhommes de neige choco-vanille. Bon, des bûches carrées, je ne suis pas encore un fan du design, mais j'essaierais.
