We awoke to a bit of snow 2021-01-18 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. The red Robin and I awoke on this holiday morning to a light dusting of snow. It must have been good hunting weather because there were a dozen of them in the yard. I interrupted the pull of the Robin on a fishing worm that was clinging to its underground home. The worm won this round. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
