Partridge in Ryan’s Pear Tree


Steve took this picture of our neighbor’s pear tree yesterday. Here it is, the middle of December, and just look at the leaves still clinging to the branches; it’ll be a week or two yet before they’ve all dropped, but in the meantime we’re enjoying the late fall colors, as are the robins. They’re down from the hills, huddled and puffed up against the cold, escaping the snow in higher elevations.
