I got up extra early, a couple weeks back, and was greeted with a number of interesting cloud formations over the EllGab Garden.  Here is the first one.

More clouds from that morning.  This one had a different tint of color to it.

A dark, somewhat forbidding cloud, just to the left of the one that was shown yesterday.

The one in the center looks Romulan.
Merry Christmas

I kind of see a flying cow with wings.  Either that, or a floating alien head, what with those two bright eyes.

By this time, the cloud with a tint of color had begun to dissipate.

As the sun grew brighter, the colorful clouds began to recede.

A large gray cloud would eventually move in, putting an end to my cloud-fest.

The EllGab Garden hummingbird feeder.  A rare sighting of two hummers sharing the feeder.  Usually one will chase the other away.  If it gets cold enough, as was the case above, they will get along. but only temporarily.

Had a light dusting of snow here at the EllGab Garden.  This was almost a month ago.  No other snowfall since.

Spotted these early crocus popping up while out on a neighborhood walk.  Back on January 14, to be more precise.

Just to show you what I'm up against here at the EllGab Garden.  Here is a typical cloud picture taken from the center of the garden.  Several E.G. trees mixed in with neighborhood trees, telephone poles & power lines.

There are a few spots where I can get an unencumbered photo, depending on how high the cloud is up in the sky.  I have to zoom in a bit at times, but whatever works.

My two yellow crocus plants have returned for yet another year.  They both popped up overnight back on February 1st.  I call them the Mardi Gras Crocus because they seem to appear just before the Mardi Gras festival down there in New Orleans.
