Baker looks gorgeous all in white. At least this mountain of the Cascades was named after someone who saw it, unlike most of the other major peaks. I'd like to see the name changed back to the Native name. Excellent capture MB.

Nice post. Too cold for me but nice anyway.

Crows do soak food in water. They are not the only ones. So do raccoons and squirrels and lots of other birds will soak food in water. I have to clean out the water dishes two or three times a day sometimes and it is filled with puffy food of some sort they dropped and left.
