Dark, wet, and gloomy, like proper #wetlands should be. Spot the dog. No, her name is not Spot. It's Masza. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon

Stealing this excuse for not making any New Year's resolutions. https://xkcd.com/2576/

We should start every day by visiting our neighbor. #Polesia

Helping our neighbor. The pine in her yard broke a few days ago under the weight of snow. Such work requires precision. Note that the colors of the cap and the chainsaw match almost perfectly.

Found some half-frozen chanterelles in the forest, but left them in place. We still have lots of them in our freezer. Delicious. #Fungi

Another day, another walk through our neighborhood. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMosstodon #DogsOfMastodon #Wetlands

This power pole is fifty or sixty years old. Made of reinforced concrete, it holds up the wires that bring electric power to our house. If it fails it will be replaced by a plastic pole, and I have no idea how long it would last. Guess we have to go completely off-grid. #Polesia #IdąPsięta

Bruno, guardian of the snow. He'll be very unhappy when it all disappears. Very little snow is left now near our place, but there are still some larger patches at southern edges of meadows, where tree shade protects it a bit from the sun. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon

Moss growing on lichen on branch of a tree. #Polesia #Mosstodon

We don't expect any visitors. Our #dogs, #IdąPsięta, are happy.

After almost a week without driving from my house I finally went to the nearest village store to buy some food. I think I shouldn't repeat another expedition like that before spring. #Polesia #Wetlands #RuralRoads

The sun set many hours ago in #Polesia . Time to go to sleep.

Our neighbour's tree went down under the weight of the snow. It won't protect us from the sun any more, when spring comes and we sit on those benches and drink wine.

#Wetlands are wet, they are happy. Our #dogs, #IdąPsięta, are wet, some are happy, some not. Our bedsheets will suffer from the canine vectored transfer of wetness. We're not happy about that, but generally we're happy. #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia

On today's walk in the #wetlands #forests of #Polesia we found remnants of the spirit of Christmas.

I got a 404 but reloaded a couple of times and it worked.

Something delicious must have died here. Or became delicious some time after it died. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia

A Christmas walk with #IdąPsięta in #Polesia, Poland. In Poland smiling is – officially – regarded as not natural. Now you understand why. #DogsOfMastodon
