Though the sun did manage to come out later today, much of the day was cold and snowing. I was out walking all morning and I think it must have been one of the worst, if not THE worst, day underfoot that I've experienced. Snow had melted and frozen into an endless sheet of ice, and the freshly falling snow was hiding the treacherous conditions. You had to watch your step almost every inch of the path and, in the end, I cut short my walk. Not worth the risk of so easily slipping and falling! What a difference compared to my walk a few days ago in the same area - warmer, with a coating of beautiful ice crystals on everything. This little Black-capped Chickadee flew down as I crossed the small, wooden bridge at Burnsmead, Fish Creek Park.
