    Nice in winter colors! The wire of the fence, the snow and the shadows in the first photo makes such a lovely pattern.

    I saw a pair of bluebirds here the other day. Wouldn't they look pretty in that snowy landscape. Do they stay in your area during the winter?

    Of course I love that red roof off in the distance! Nice fence within a perfect winter scene, and that bird/wren house is charming. The boys next door built a few of those years ago and stuck them on my fence. They still serve the bird community and the boys are all grown up with families of their own now!

    Beautiful scenery and the snow is so beautiful covering everything like that.
    I also like the photos of the kayaks in the previous posts. It looks a very nice place to kayak - but I wonder how warm is really is?

    I love that first photo. The fences certainly stand out more against the snow right now. It will be nice to see the bluebirds return but it will be a while yet.
