Snow Snaps

Today,
I have more random pictures of snowy scenes
and
U.P. scenes of winter for you.

I loved how the icicles came out of the moss in this shot:








And this one:





In the last few blogposts,
I have shown you icicles hanging from rock bluffs.

This shot shows you some of the bluffs along the snowy road
where I took some of them:








An early morning shot of the sun just coming out
and a tree full of Starlings:








From a distance,
Starlings look all black.

But in reality,
they are speckled with color:










I spotted this fun mailbox,
full of snow:

(I want one, don't you??)






Snowy bluffs of rocks and pines:


I hope you are enjoying winter....
it really does have its own beauty.

  8. I love those cold looking photos of the icicles. Starlings are pretty birds really but I'm glad I don't have many around at this time. They'd eat all the food too fast. I got enough birds here..Ha! I do love that mailbox..It's so cute!!
    We are in for a very cold weekend. Snowed overnight and more lake effect snow coming in this afternoon till tomorrow morning. Brrrr! Glad I'm inside!! Take care!!

  12. It looks like a winter wonderland. I want one of those mailboxes, that is so cool. I don't have a place to put it but I still want one.

    No snow here right now, it's raining and in the forties.
