After Snow, Rain, and Freezing Overnight

I woke up to a crystal laden wonderland...

All over the deck.

I got outside with my camera as soon as the sun came up over the trees, to capture the sparkles before they melted, it's above 0 Celsius today.

The Camera Does it No Justice

It was far more beautiful, magical and almost blinding to be out there, I try my best to show you some of what I was seeing.

It's frozen out there again but the gulls don't mind.

Brave Little Boy Statue doesn't mind the cold either.

It's Not All White & Grey

Is there something the matter with white and grey?

No Big Smokie, white and grey are fine colours, I just wanted to see the puddle barometer, so can you get out of the way you big lug?

It feels good to be back being called a cunt again! 😂😂😂

It was really a crystal sparkling wonderland! Beauty and nature are a perfect companion. Wow! The seagulls are walking on ice , I an sure they are the ones enjoying the most of the season. Thank you ma for sharing

Thanks for liking the photos Xander :) Always nice to see you!

Great photos gave us a clear picture of the atmosphere in your country, which is very different from the area where I live.
The cock is a fan of the atmosphere and strutted with all its vehemence

He sure does know how to strut his stuff. I'm glad you like the frozen scenes from Canada :)

Thanks, Lyndsay! The photos just re-enforce why I am now living in the sunny south! lol Will puddle barometer dry up eventually? I will miss him...

Ahh yes, PB's levels will dry up come August hahhaa!!

Beautiful pictures @lyndsaybowes .. what a difference a day makes!! I love the old mans beard and for me the sunflower image is quite emotive .. head bowed awaiting the warmth of the sun .. I know how he feels! lol

We have a snow storm coming in on Thursday and my wi-fi is holding up so fingers crossed I'll be able to get out and take you on a walk with me :D

I heard you are about to get 16 inches of snow, is that right, or is it centimetres?

It's probably mm knowing the UK lol but on this occasion I think my area is going to be it by a storm which will meet the cold air so it could get wild! Either way I will be out on the moors and snapping some pics ;)

one day i am going to pack a sandwich and a coffee and sit on the dock with that little guy. pretty sure he might be lonely by now.

Very great pictures.@lyndsaybowes... Soon it will melt all this because of the fire of war

Are you talking about the Quest?

Soooo beautiful! I've seen that sparkle plenty of times growing up in Southern Ontario and your absolutely correct in saying that the camera simply cannot capture the beauty of it!

And the rooster!!! Love him struttin' his stuff out there :)

Thanks for empathizing Lynn :) And I'll be sure to tell Big Smokie that you think he's a MAN <3

My pleasure! And tell Big Smokie that I may have found his MAN competition here in Playa!

Omg that is so awesome! What a brave, manly Roo!!

Thought you'd like that :)

Hey, Lindsay! Your weather is crazy. I saw Your previous post and I was glad the ice was melting. But here again, the puddle-barometer showed that everything freezes. You feel these changes every day. Frost is very beautiful sparkles in the sun. Excellent photos. Your chicken family is well adapted to this weather. They are resistant to tolerate all the delights of your climate. Thank you for sharing. I hope you're doing well.

I am doing very well, thank you so much <3 <3 Our chickens will even go outside if it is - 10 Celsius! They are very strong animals <3 <3 <3 How have you been?

ha ha , soon we are promised a thaw through the week. Hurray! Thank you!

thanks you @lyndsaybowes
Why that boy always alone? I'm afraid something happened to him ..Hahaha
