3rd Sunday in Advent. A little female Junco Christmas last year... Under a snow cloud Morning glow In the deep midwinter... Michigan winter HAPPY NEW YEAR! Off to a great 2019! Sunset over the field. There is no ice on the river this year. Spring ice in 2015, no ice anywhere this winter. Great Lakes Whitefish fishing boat. Made of leftovers. A frozen world This was one of the worst ice storm in recent year… Ice sculpture Ice on Lake Huron in 2015 The Red Dot The first major snowstorm this year in Michigan Maggie is weathering the snowstorm. I made a trail for Maggie to run on. Sunday morning in our neighborhood One of three red birdhouses in the park In my small, frozen world Winter contrasts Crisp air produces strong contrasts Sad exchange... Clinging to the tree Clinging to the tree Alone on the tree The first ice A truck tire left to rot Five minutes walking along the trail... The dancers and reindeer are ready for Christmas. Ice crystals this afternoon, but the sunshine was… Hand-crafted wooden window decor for Christmas Goldfinches before they migrated. The red dot Red-breasted Nuthatch (Rotbrustkleiber) Ore Mountain wood carving Weather in Michigan The first ice has formed on the lake November midday sun A magical path through nature.
