Tracking through the marsh when we went to photograph the swans they flew back over our tracks ..perhaps they were tracking us!
Happy Mono Monday!
Another early post today! Another one from my snowy walk this week. Same tree tunnel I posted a couple of weeks ago, but with a little wintery touch to it.
Spring 2020 in the Poudre Canyon, Colorado.
Thinking of Colorado right now, hoping everyone can hang in there. Quite a few places I spent time there taking photos have recently burned, and I feel for everyone whom’s homes have been threatened. Stay tough, guys.

This is the same Magnolia tree that I posted the other day. We had snow overnight and still snowing at this morning.. According to the weather forecast earlier today, we are expecting 4 to 8 centimetres of snow by noon.
Have a beautiful day everyone!💝
Thank you for your visits, kind comments, awards and faves. Always greatly appreciated.

With daffodils popping up out of the ground we received an unwanted snow on Monday. But the dark eyed Juncos love it:)
Be well dear Flickr, friends!
Just after a springtime mountain snowstorm, Amtrak’s eastbound California Zephyr is about to take down the West Cliff signal at Pinecliffe, Colorado, on April 22, 2001.
Today's picture is one of many that I captured yesterday whilst out for a wander in the snow. I spotted some snow covered mushrooms growing on a tree!
Ah yes, Willy the wild rabbit!
It is March 30th and most years the snow has melted.
and surely the snowstorms would be over.
The first week of April would bring a nasty two-to-three-day Winter storm with several inches of snow.
A few days later most of that snow had melted only to bring
on another snowstorm for April 20.
The snow amounts were kept down with heavy cold rains and rain/snow mix most of the day until changing over to all snow
by 5 to 6 p.m. There were many areas not so lucky with
heavy snow and up to a foot of new snow.
This does not help the flooding situation in areas of my State and N. Dakota. Winter and flood advisory extended as snow continues today into tonight.
Jazzy was not excited about our morning photo shoot with snow but she was a good sport . She is now comfy and snoring in her bed.
It will be unseasonably cold, windy with snow on and off
today into this evening. More snow for Saturday and perhaps into early Sunday.
Have many snow photos yet to share and many will have to wait until the next snow season.
On April 12, 2001, an eastbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe manifest freight is about to take down the west signal at Cliff, Colorado, on a snowy Moffat Tunnel Subdivision. Even though the red paint on lead warbonnet-clad Santa Fe Dash 9 No. 610 has been partially touched up, it still looks good among the snow-flocked trees at Pinecliffe this spring day! Besides No. 610, the colorful locomotive consist includes Heritage I and II Dash 9s, a BNSF EMD SD75M and a BN EMD SD40-2.
seems to be winter's song as spring is having a hard time surfacing on the East Coast

Thank you for your visits, thoughts and inspiration!!
Since the first grizzly out of hibernation has been spotted in Grand Teton, I thought I would post this cutie from a few years ago. They are so fun in the snow.
Early spring plants of the Rockies are subject to the episodic return of winter early in the growing season, making their goal of producing seeds tenuous in some years. One such plant is the Pasque flower (Anemone patens) which occurs from the base of the mountains to above treeline (5400-13,000'/ 1600-4000 m).
This population is at the middle of the range (9200'/ 2800 m) which given the timing of its flowering exposes it to heavy snows in some years. Populations at lower elevations are already maturing seeds, and populations at higher elevations are still in the bud stage. This year (2022) is one of those years- as I write this it is starting to snow on this individual, and as much as 26 inches/ 66 cm of the white stuff are supposed to fall in the next 36 hours.
Although the weather we are getting is rare it does occur with enough frequency ( ~ every 20 years) that native plants are adapted to it . Pasque flowers have relatively thick petals with pubescence (hairs) covering their external surface. When the weather is not so conducive for pollinators to do their thing, the petals close up and protect the important reproductive organs. My guess is that the flowers will survive being buried in the snow and will produce some seeds to help maintain the population.
This is when the storm started yesterday. Got about 4 inches. Day before I'm raking and then shoveling..............last night thunderstorm and now freezing rain. 😯😯😯
HFF and have a nice weekend.
... gab es diese Woche bei uns in Flatz, Niederösterreich
... we had this week in Flatz, Lower Austria
I don't think I'll get a chance to take any photos today, so today's photo is a bit of a throwback to the snow we had a few weeks ago. Close up shot of some snow and moss on the side of a tree in the local woods.
For the group: Looking close... on Friday!

Montag maritim – Der Bulker „SPRING SNOW“ im Seehafen Rostock. Das 225 Meter lange Schiff wurde 2010 in Dienst gestellt und fährt unter der Flagge der Marshall Islands.
Aktuell (12.09.2022) ist das Schiff in der Ostsee unterwegs und wird am 13.09.2022 in Riga (Lettland) erwartet.
Yesterday's title was actually mnisleading as it was technically Spring, at least by the calendar.
This image, was taken the same morning as yesterday's post. This one was looking towards the sun that would try to break through the fog every now and then.
I remember this one being tough to decide on exposure when taking it, and also tough to process. Although within the scene the sun is by far the brightest element, in real life you could easily look at it being shrouded by the fog. The sun did give some warmth colourwise. In processing from memory I had a tough time arriving at the colour temperature adjustment. Hard to say how accurate I ended up, but I tried to render the scene as accurately as I could. The sun likely appeared as an amber colour, but of course limited by 256 brightness values in a digital image, it pretty much has to be rendered as white to give brightness to it within the capture.
Not too often we get conditions like these, and if I look outside and see mist or fog, I automatically grab my camera.
