Picture of the Day for February 21, 2018

The sun was out bright today but sunny days in the winter can be very deceiving as they normally mean cold days. Even the sun wasn’t strong enough to melt the ice off the tree limbs in the below freezing temperatures. Some of the limbs sparkled in the sunlight while others rattled in the breeze. Birds would have trouble eating this ice crusted berries.

Picture of the Day for March 30, 2015

Temperatures slightly above freezing yesterday afternoon melted the ice that fell earlier in the day which was a good thing with the strong winds making the tree branches rattle. So winter days aren’t so lucky when the heavy ice break limbs and power lines. I just don’t know if ice counted as snow for the robin tail for spring to finally come.
