Winter – Page 2

A forest field in Autumn

I think I’m avoiding winter. Notice that I haven’t posted one winter related photo … all the recent photos have been autumn related? It’s not like you can ignore a season like winter – not with all the snow we’ve had, but I’m doing my best, at least on this blog!

Again, this is a photograph of a local park that we take our dog to so that she can burn off some of that extra energy she has. She loves it and so do we, I mean, look how pretty it is, even in autumn?

Ok, I’ll try to take some winter photos … won’t be pretty though, especially since we’ve had a “warm” spell and the snows melting and everything is puddles and mud! But I’ll try.

Pine Branch

I should have a picture of a snow covered pine branch up today since we’ve had so much snow here in Toronto in the last few days! Still … I think the sight of pine probably makes most people think of winter and the holiday season so it’s fitting.

I hope that you are having a less snow filled day than I am!

Milkweed Husk

The Milkweed Husks are all gone now, but I couldn’t resist one last shot of fall at it’s purest.

We had some snow on the ground for a week or so, but it melted away. However it’s getting quite cold again so I expect we’ll have some snow within a few days.

Chicory flower seed heads

You might remember that back in November I posted a photo of a lovely blue flower that I now believe was Wild Chicory. If I’m right, these flower seed heads are Chicory flower seed heads.

I find it amazing that a flower can still look beautiful, even as it is dying down for the winter season.
