Morning breaks on the shore of Lake Superior and Mother Nature provides a spectacular scene for those who venture out as dawn approaches.

The predawn landscape may be very muted in color, but the pink glow of a foggy morning seems more colorful than a chilly winter day, or at least seems warmer!

The cold blast overnight has put an ice layer on my pond but the larger lakes retained enough heat in the water to prevent that from happening, at least for today, but soon most will succumb to winter’s icy grip.

It is nice to see the sun out this morning, after all it is ‘Sun’day. Course seeing sun rising anytime after a grey week is a good thing.

Mother Nature is playing a late April Fool Day joke. It is snowing and I thought the saying was April showers bring May flowers. I have no clue what April snow brings besides cussing and sore backs from shoveling the heavy, wet snow. It definitely is not bringing flowers but it has brought a lot of birds to the feeders (and other critters too).
I probably should have posted a flower picture but maybe by giving the snow its coverage as the picture of the day, it can go hibernate for a while and let spring come!
Cruel Joke!

Last night there was predicted frost but it didn’t get as cold as last year when I was camping on the North Shore. While at the Gooseberry River, I went out early to get the sunrise picture over Lake Superior and had grabbed a towel to wipe the water off the bench while I waited. But I didn’t have to worry about the rain drops from the overnight sprinkles since they were frozen solid because it was 24 degrees out that morning!
But a few minutes after this shot, the sun made its appearance, creating a beautiful sunrise, melted the frozen water drops and a created a perfect day to explore the waterfalls.
