Snowfall

Did this fella know
















 this was coming?


















A gorgeous snowfall - that covered the ground.
















Each limb and branch was











coated in white.

It was a wonderful site!

Yes I think this fella knew what was coming.



Hope everyone is warm and safe.
Have a blessed week.

  4. Oh my, that was a lot of snow. I left the greenhouse door open for a couple of warm days and it is full of bees on the lemon trees. I had to close the door for tonite is to get cold again. Love your drawing/painting of the bluejay. He must have been wondering what he was going to eat.

    I love your watercolor. You have captured that little fella beautifully.

  6. So beautiful - I wonder if it means there is more on the way for us - the poor old plants wont know what's hit them if it does. We have had raging winds all day - almost blowing you of your feet - which is in complete contrast to last week, where I actually sat in the garden with a cup of tea and a book (with coat on) but it was lovely to just feel the sun on my face, even if only for a short while. Have a good week my friend and keep warm.

  7. Lucky you having a blue jay visit. We do not have them here. I love your painting - although I notice you do not give it the starring role. You are so modest, Debbie and obviously prefer to showcase the stunning beauty of God's handiwork. The photos sure are beautiful.
    P.S. Is a large log pile under the snow?

  8. You really had a HUGE snowfall! Glad the bluejay has a safe place to stay and some good food. And your rendering of him is lovely, Debbie!

  10. A snow fall makes everywhere look so clean and I can almost feel the silence through your photos. I'm sure the birds like animals have that sense of the weather,
    Loved your sketch and painting of the Blue-jay. We don't have that Jay here in Europe ours has a pinky tinge of colour on it's chest with a tinge of blue on it's wing, but they are always in the woods around us so I would have to paint it from an image. I hope the snow clears for you soon.

  11. It really does look beautiful and magical. The colours of the bird captured and then painted is delightful. Your first snowdrop, yes a sign spring is on its way.
    Keep warm.x

  13. Snow is so pretty--and so is your little blue fella. I'm sure he was tucked away warm and safe when the snow hit. Just like you (I hope)!

  16. I do think these little critters really can tell when there are changes coming in the weather. They may not have the 10-day forecast, but I'll bet they can foresee one or two days ahead. Your photos are beautiful. You have captured the true beauty of snow at its finest!

  19. That is a lot of snow! Goodness.

    Birds are smart. I bet that little guy is nice and warm and snug somewhere. And your renditions of him are lovely and delicate.

    I hope your Tuesday is good! Stay warm:)

  22. Bonjour chère amie,

    Il est magnifique cet oiseau. Est-ce un geai ?
    Vos photos sont très très belles. Je n'aime pas la neige mais j'avoue que le spectacle est éblouissant.
    J'espère qu'elle ne restera pas trop longtemps et que Demoiselle Printemps vous fera sourire.

    Une aquarelle très vivante et superbe.

    Gros bisous

  23. Ho yes, I'm sure birds know a lot more than we think! Your pictures are simply beautiful. Nature's a glorious sight!
    Today we're having the same kind of weather and already I can see the red cardinal, the woodpecker and a few tits busy in the bird feeder. Love your blue jay Debbie! Whatever the weather, I'm going out today! :) Have a beautiful day, HUgs

  24. You got quite a lot of snow! It looks so lovely when it first falls and gives everything a fresh coat of white. I love when it sits on the tree branches and trunks. Too bad that state doesn't last longer. I hope you enjoyed it for a while! Have a great week, Debbie.
