Weeping Birch, Starlings and Afternoon Snow

The only visitors to Squire Valleevue Farm this afternoon were the starlings. Not enough for a murmuration but sufficient to ornament this weeping birch, draped with latticed leaves and snow, standing alone at the east end of the farm. By late autumn and through the winter months starlings adopt or, given their reputation for belligerence, arrogate this lovely tree for themselves.
