Birches and vines

I still see a lot of color out in the vineyards and woods, even though we're in January. The sun highlights the reds in the bare bark and there are plenty of evergreens around. Many of our shorter grasses stay a vibrant green throughout the winter.

I will try to remember to take the same shot after the vines have been pruned in this section.

So far this winter has been quite mild, even unseasonably warm. But that may be changing; I notice that we are predicted to get lower lows this coming week. I wonder if we'll see snow in February?
