MACRO GLITTER SHOT!! FUN!!

The snow continues to fall here at Lake Aquitaine and I couldn't be happier, although some rain yesterday melted quite a bit, but that's ok. For my landscape shot today, two seasons collide with some snow covered berries.

As the seasons change, so does the wildlife. These gorgeous Starlings have started to visit and I am thrilled! They have iridescent feathers, so sometimes they look blue, brown or even green!

My token Cardinal shot... coming in for a landing!

A graceful Seagull trying to find a safe place on the lake to land...

The squirrels are having a hard time out there. Yesterday I watched as Crystal fell off of a slippery branch, headfirst into a snowbank. She wasn't moving! I dropped the camera and ran outside! Thankfully she wasn't hurt, but I realized in that moment... it's going to be a long winter!

"I'm so annoyed! Do I look annoyed? I'm pretty frickin' annoyed!"

"I think if I run really fast, I can outrun the cold!!"

"Omg, is there snow on my face! Get it off! Get it off!"

Last but not least, my macro for the day is a chunk of ice in the morning sun!
Hey Sara Emily, how about this for rock candy!! lol

That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. Be kind to your birds and squirrels, leave out a few peanuts for them please.
