• Great photos. Clever and thoughtful poetry.

  • Thank you, John! 😁

• A beautiful post! And what lovely birds - do you know what species they are? I am sure we do not have them in Sweden.

  • Thanks, Ann-Christine! Those birds are American robins. During winter they're very common at our house, pushing other birds aside to get water.

    • Beautiful – look much bigger than our Robins.

      • Yes, they're much bigger than the European robin. They're close relatives of your blackbirds. Sorry for the delayed response. 😊

        • Thank you - just the size I imagined!

    • I wonder where my comment went? I wrote they look bigger than ours in Sweden. Beautiful!

• Icy AND beautiful!

  • Yes, it was! We have four distinct seasons here and winter is a great time for pictures.

• Oh my, YES Siobhan - loved your poem! And your image of the little birds is wonderful Excellent response.

  • Thanks, Tina! The robins love getting a drink from our water feature in the winter.

• Beautiful words to go with these cold winter photos. I love snowy cold winters, so beautiful!

  • Thank you! It's going to be 100 degrees here today so I'll be thinking a lot about those cooler temperatures.

• Like your acronym-ish poem :) and the sun bursting onto the snowy grass is my favourite capture

  • Thanks! I liked that shot too. :D

• Great shots of winter, Siobhan! I especially like the snowy plant with the sun on it. It is hot here today (the 90's) so winter pictures are refreshing to look at!

  • Thanks! Yes, it's nice to think of winter when it's so hot out. 🌞
