Winter solstice greetings

Forty winter solstice observances are listed in Wikipedia's entry on the subject. The most popular now, of course, is Christmas. I just like to note the shortest day of the year.

I took this photo of the sunset yesterday, so it's not technically a photo of the shortest day. However, I can't count on remembering to do it today, and besides, it's probably going to be cloudy and raining at sunset today anyway. Well, I suppose I could have taken a photo of this morning's sunrise, but that would have taken some kind of miracle since I'm not a morning person.

Merry Christmas, Good Yule, and Happy Whatever-Other-Winter-Solstice-Celebration-You-Celebrate!

    I am very happy to see the shortest day of the year come so we can start having a little more light every day. How thrilling to have a bald eagle hang around for a photo op!
