For the first time in many days, the sun appeared. And although the weather was quite frosty, it felt completely different walking. A little more optimism, peace, and joy.

The birds showed up in droves today. All eager for high-energy food. Peanuts are perfect for this. Lots of protein and oil. Perfect for cold, frosty nights.

This weather meant there were quite a few people in the park. And I'm not surprised. We were all waiting for the sun, regardless of the outside temperature.

Truth be told, winter is dragging on for a long time this year, and I'm already fed up with it. We're eagerly awaiting spring.
