Deeper into Spring
Thrilled to visit with the lovely Calypso orchids
more commonly called Fairy Slippers
Native stonecrop succulents that slept beneath winter's snow
have sprung to life in perfection
along with joyous moss
make two wishes
one for you
and one for our lovely world

Spring treasures
This handsome garter snake appeared when half the earth was still cloaked in snow. I was surprised to see it out of hibernation.

Frozen Lake
Autumn gold
held
beneath
winters frozen breath of ice
twas a beautiful day at the lake
when the sun comes out to show off the beauty of our world
I try to be out under its lovely light
for our winters tend to be cloudy
The lake shore was frozen for quite a ways into the lake
yet there were windows in the ice revealing treasures below
the artful expression of nature
appears to be endless and whimsical at times
some winters
and this lake does not freeze at all
there were people walking on this ice.....
so fun to see ice forming in a myriad of shapes and different transparencies
I hope you have enjoyed the glimpses of Lake McDonald
in winter wonderland
