A Break From the Monotony of gray
We did not get above freezing for several days. Even today, with all melted, the air is very crisp and I am staying indoors. Here are a few more photos of the lovely icy artwork that Mother Nature is so famous for.
If you look closely, there is still a lot of color out there.
The birds were feeding each and every day and I should buy stock in birdseed.
Above I had fun with layering to bring out the female cardinal. I am always amazed at how they weather the weather!

The birds amaze me too. They survive the coldest nature throws at them. There is much colour if we but look!
ReplyDeleteShe is all fluffed up. Maybe the rose is too.
ReplyDeleteThe gray days will get you down.
ReplyDeleteYour photos of the ice are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove,

It's beautiful but living through it once is often enough for me.
ReplyDeleteThe female cardinal is beautiful isn't she? Yesterday a male was singing from a tree top here, a wonderful herald of spring.
ReplyDeleteYou ha quite an icing. Good for you getting those shots while it lasted.
ReplyDeleteWe are finally thawing. I should have concentrated to captured winter photos but I was too buy preserving my electricity and propane.
ReplyDeletethey emptied 3 bags of seed in one week here. I was happy to have it for them as it was snowy and icy and the birds here are unaccustomed to that.
ReplyDeleteMy that rose looks sad! I am glad that you're welcoming the birds. It must be so hard for them.
ReplyDeleteLovely to view — through a window or in your photos.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ice pictures. I hope that no permanent damage was done to your beautiful garden plants.
