Dealing with winter

Challenge #6 in the The Arts series. Hosted by Steven Blackwood.

Challenge has finished

Now that winter is hopefully (sorry skiers and other snow enthusiasts) in the down slope in the Northern Hemisphere, lets see how winter is survived. Entries must have something obviously winter in it and living things dealing with it (thus animals as well as people allowed). Entries devoid of sentient beings will be DQ!
