The storms we had last week left lots of snow on the branches of even the tiniest trees. I really like the textures of the snow as well as the contrast between the snow and the clear blue sky. I hope you are not tiring of winter photos yet. There are still 6-8 weeks of winter left in this part of the world. :)
Someone asked what I liked about walking in the forest this time of the year. When I thought about it, there are many reasons:
- no black flies, mosquitoes or other biting insects
- easy to walk over areas that are boggy in the summer providing opportunities to explore areas that are difficult to pass in the summer
- walking across lakes and ponds saves time and effort when trying to get somewhere specific
- I can see tracks which indicate animals have passed by this area since I have been there last.
Since I do not get cold when walking in the forest, it is sometimes more enjoyable walking in winter.
