Oh I sure hope we have seen the last of snow. I have so much snow in my yard from the snow that came in October and stayed. Have to love my part Canada . Lovely shots.
ReplyDeleteMother Nature has that ability, doesn't she? Beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteWow, these photos are truly awesome! I'm with you on the snow, tricky mother nature thing, we are supposed to get more by tomorrow night ... enough already!
ReplyDeleteThe pix are just wonderful!!! Glad the snow melted quickly! I remember Easters in April with lots of snow and slush on the ground there... :(
ReplyDeleteWe received about an inch here in the north. I am soooo ready for warm, sunny spring!
ReplyDeleteshe's just testing you, and your patience.
ReplyDeletefantastic pictures, and I so agree with the sentiment!!
ReplyDeleteme neither ...
ReplyDeleteShe's testing a bunch of us! Love the shots with the wings fluttering!
ReplyDeletebeautiful photos. can't believe it's still snowing there (and other places) still. we've had a mixture of sun and cloud yesterday & today. no snow though. have a great day.
ReplyDeleteAt least it was a good April Fools joke
ReplyDelete: )
Pretty shots!
The games mother nature plays with us ;-)
ReplyDeletesour maybe? but not bitter lol
ReplyDeletespring came, then went to heat and now winds and cooler here. mother nature is going through menopause perhaps?

LMAO! Love the post. But most awesome photos! I absolutely love the bottom one where the bird in the bottom right looks like an angel (without a head heehee). Too cool.
ReplyDeleteIt seems as though Winter is reluctant to make it's retreat this year. There are the first signs of Spring but I'm hungry for more.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! Mother nature just wants you to appreciate spring even more when it arrives! ..of course that's easy for me to say here in San Diego :)
ReplyDeleteit would seem that Mother Nature is a bit of a flake.
ReplyDeletebittersweet :)
ReplyDeleteI live in Palm Springs and the heat has been in the triple digits the last 3 days. Its so hard to imagine snow when its so hot here. At least you got some beautiful shots.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! We've gone from warm to cold to tornado warnings and are just now warning up again. Hope spring comes your way soon!
ReplyDeleteI love your fluttering birds, Beth ~
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear of your weather. Warmth is coming though. I just know it.
Love seeing your flutterers, it reminds me of my time in Wisconsin last summer. But the snow! You might not be bitter, but I am trying to control my tongue. We didn't have the snow, but those darn black clouds and rain just won't go away.
ReplyDeleteIt had to be Mother Nature playing her own April Fool's joke! Lucky you to see the beauty in the snow and capture these lovely images.
ReplyDeletelove the pictures
ReplyDeletewonderful captures!
ReplyDeleteOh Beth you're in such a good mood when it comes to mother nature...knowing you're fed up with snow and long for spring.
ReplyDeleteBut these pictures are goreous, love those birds (we don't have those on this side of the pond).
May warm winds blow soon upon your home my friend.
Hugs Dagmar
Amazing pictures!!!! So beautiful!!!!!!! Love your talents!
ReplyDeleteYours and mine, both. and it's still snowing on Sunday. (Or course, it stopped some yesterday). And me? I'm bitter.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteD was there Thursday and couldn't believe how it snowed--we had a sunny day north of you. Those poor birds. They need those feeders!
ReplyDeleteExquisitely beautiful..extraordinary bird images. We - too - got snow on April Fool's Day. Not a funny joke..but pretty!
ReplyDeleteSPECTACULAR!
ReplyDeleteMother Nature appears to have a giant bug... oh, nevermind...
ReplyDeletelove the photo. it is sunny here today and almost 50. heat wave!
i went outside to cut down my tall grasses which was quite the feat considering that I can't squat. but it was wroth it just to be outside.
and apparently all that fresh air made me lose my ability to spell...
ReplyDeletedon't be bitter (it's 85 here today)
ReplyDeleteLove these birds in flight, Beth - difficult to capture, the colors are muted and yet striking.
