Of course, there is always this aspect of the DC area pond scene ... (from the Dec 2009 blizzard).
Fortunately, the goldfish don't mind too much - I've seen them in frozen in ice and they thaw okay once it warms up
- but we dig up the elephant ear bulbs and we do take the gargoyle statue in each winter ...
Anyway, you can see the upper and lower pond areas better without all the plants!
The creek between them isn't running when its cold, and its full of snow in this shot.
The backyard is too shady for the banana plants - they are in pots out front.
We have 16 mature trees over 80 foot tall on our little 1/4 acre here in Fairfax city.
And to help with this heat spell today, here is another from our back yard - some cardinals feeding in the snow on Feb 6, 2010 - No 'naners for them!
(found a better version of the Cardinals picture and replaced it Sun July 31st - Enjoy!)
