More This and That from the Woods: Part TWO

This is the second in a two-part series of some photos we took

while we took another trip out into the snowy woods.

Although we didn't see any animals this trip out, we did see some neat icicles that formed as they dripped off some rocks on a snowy road and it was a gorgeous, sunny day to be out looking at the snowy scenes.

So, grab a cup of coffee or cocoa, put your feet up and enjoy this trip out in the woods with me, wouldn't you?

More icicles dripping over the mossy rocks:

We don't know why this dripped yellow....no dogs in sight..it might have been yellow from some pine tree sap?:

I loved how the yellow Tamarack trees formed a lovely backdrop for the snowy pine trees:

A little hidden snowy bridge in the middle of the woods....probably made for a snowmobile trail:



Blue skies and a snowy pond:

Back to the ice on the rocks:

I was amazed how crystal clear the ice was hanging from the rocks:

A hint of the river:




One last shot of the yellow icicles through the trees:

It is surprising that the weight of the snow doesn't break the pine bough:

I love the snowy forest in black and white:

I hope you enjoyed the tour out in the woods with me today.

I know most of you are SICK of snow by now...but before we know it, all of this will melt away and be just a memory.

I hope to get out a few more times to capture some winter wonderland photos for you before spring arrives.

More This and That from the Woods....Part ONE

I know a lot of you have had a ton of snow this year and may be sick of seeing more.

But here, we get that much snow EVERY year...and I still think it is gorgeous.

We don't see much open water and snow together in the middle of the woods.

Usually, all the water is frozen over.

But I found a spot!:

Snow scenes are especially fun in black and white!:

And then we found a little "hallway" in the wood's road that had rocks....

and better yet?

Ice

hanging from the rocks!:

It was a gorgeous day out there...

full of blue sky....:

And snowy woods with shadows from the sun!:

And a snowy cabin tucked in amongst the pines:

Loved the pines hanging with snow everywhere!:






And those moss filled rocks with

frozen hanging icicles?



Heaven!:







Ice crystals on crystal clear icicles!:

Frozen ponds and blue skies!:

As usual, I took several more photos

so

I will be posting PART TWO of this series in a few days for you....
