A new coating of snow covered the ground last evening, but the morning’s wind removed another bit of the autumn as one of the few remaining oak leaves fell and stabbed into the new snow.
Autumn Meeting Winter
I am having trouble finding any color this spring as there are no flowers blooming yet, even if I could find them under the snow. About the only color I can find are some leaves from last year which are under the water in the pond. At least the melting snow has filled the pond with clear water so you can see deep into the pond to where the leaf was resting on last year’s cattail leaves.
The refilled pond also had visitors the other day as a pair of mallards and a pair of wood ducks were enjoying a swim but I didn’t try to get pictures of them as I wanted the wood ducks to nest in the duck house.
