Sudden Snow

I woke this am to an unexpected snow. This time of year, this is demoralizing and potentially damaging to trees that have already leafed out.

This Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura) seems to be handling the sudden change in the weather with more grace than I.

Our neighbor's tree leafed out over night. Very bad timing. It is now bowing over under the weight of the wet snow.
