this snowfall: slivers
of crystals and star flakes
Until we look close, could we ever imagine
the varied crystals of snow that grace our world?
above is from a different snowfall
whitetail deer
in
winter woodlands
for two weeks
one Arctic Redpoll visited the feeder
makes me wonder how one bird
is here
they are usually a flock type of bird

Deletecomme la chanson:
ReplyDeleteÉtoile des neiges
Mon coeur amoureux
S'est pris au piège
De tes grands yeux
Je te donne en gage
Cette croix d'argent
Et de t'aimer toute ma vie
Je fais serment.... :)))) superbes étoiles!
So very lovely
Deletethank you ~
Every new day brings new wonders at your place! Do you feel in harmony with that beautiful nature and its inhabitants?:)
ReplyDeleteYes, I would say that I like to become winter during winter.
DeleteBeautiful takes!
ReplyDeleteThank you William
DeleteYou are right about the redpolls. I have only ever seen them in flocks, or at very minimum small groups, and Arctic Redpolls have always been in a mixed flock with Common Redpolls, never alone.
ReplyDeleteI once had a small group of redpolls at the feeder David, they ate on the ground. I believe they were the Common Redpolls. I have enjoyd watching this lone bird with all the other types. The last few days another Redpoll has shown up and they sometimes are together. I think it is a common Redpoll.
DeleteSuch beauty and perfection.
ReplyDeleteYou get such gorgeous flakes and slivers.
Thanks for your great pics.
Thank you Rick.
DeleteHello,Tammie,
ReplyDeleteYou have many opportunities to photography in the snow season.
The deer is lovely and the Red poll bird is pretty. I hope he has not got lost from his big family.
Yesterday, in the early morning,I found frosts on my balcony.I grabbed my camera and rushed into our garden.
It was sad the frosts were almost melted. I will try it again...some day..this winter.
Have a good day.
I wish you some frost to photograph and enjoy. They do melt as soon as it gets above freezing. Looks like I have an ice crystal morning to explore soon.
DeleteIncredible picture of that snowflake!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely winter wonderland!
ReplyDeleteFabulous macro shots of the details of those adorable snowflakes! So lovely to see the deer in the snow and that cute little bird too!
ReplyDeleteSnowflakes are such wondrous things.
ReplyDeleteTotally dazzled. You really should have these printed into holiday cards. They're fabulous.
ReplyDeleteAbsolute beauties - you capture snowflakes like I've never seen before.
ReplyDeleteThey are still surprising me with their unique expressions Jade.
DeleteSo beautiful. Really like magic.
ReplyDeleteThese photos are very special! The snowflakes and frost look like jewels. That Redpoll is gorgeous. I don't think we have them at our altitude.
ReplyDeleteI have only seen the common redpolls twice. One year they came as a small flock to the feeder. Ate mostly on the ground.
DeleteBut this year, the single arctic redpoll for two weeks. Now it seems a common redpoll has appeared with it. I have enjoyed watching it and seeing how it behaves differently than the other birds at thee feeder.
Beautiful photos Tammie! The one of the single snow flake is exquisite!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Snowflakes are so small, I find it challenging to get them clear and in focus.
DeleteBeautiful photos Tammie Lee. Nature is awesome. I love that white tail deer! :)
ReplyDeleteYou capture the very best of winter!
ReplyDeleteSnowflakes are such little miracles, magic woven by natural laws... Beautiful details, Tammie!
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely words and perception about snowflakes.
DeleteTammie Lee, the snow flakes are incredible. Nature is wonderful, isn't it? I love the picture of the deer, and the Arctic Redpoll is sweet. I always leave your lovely blog with a smile on my face. : )
