       Good morning  what a great day on Sunday.  Highs in the 40F(6C) on Sunday.  Today predicted to be 54F( 12C)  what difference a week makes as last week we were below zero.  All I can say is enjoy.  It is going to be cloudy, so will not seem as warm as yesterday when the sun was shining. 

Australia family and friends is to have 78F(24C) today.  Special family members are visiting in Cairns, Queensland, Aust. That is located nearer to the equator so north.  They will experience 86F (30C).  That will be warm because the humidity is high at 91 %.  But it is tropical, so they know it is going to be warm, and humid. 
​
I will post what we found out the answer to my mystery.  I had so much fun with what everyone wrote.  Here are some of them.
Coyotes or fox
Pheasant
Australia friend, still baffled
Dougherty friend, If it isn’t not Larry definitely not rabbits or cats or dog.  I would say deer
Too wide for raccoon
A small deer/doe possibly
Here is probably the answer when you have a Naturalist answer this mystery
Deer!  Then they scratched around through the snow to try and find some food on the grass.
Then the next question I asked was why the last pictures were so blue?  Our daughter Jen is a  college photographer instructor, she said.”
Early morning light is blue, “ I said, not taken at noon but on the north side of the house.”
Now here is the real answer to the blue color.   Light is made up of different wavelengths of colors.  When it is all mixed together, we get the sunlight white light we are used to. But Different things can obstruct different wavelengths thus we have the golden hour in the morning and the color of light is different in the shade.  Because of the whiteness of snow, we see more blue colors than when there is grass or dirt.  Jen wrote this.
I must report that this fun mystery post saw that I had over 1000 hits.  It is telling me people are looking for something new and fun on Facebook.  Thanks to all that looked at these posts.  Now to come up with another mystery for you to solve.
