Blanket of Snow
( Part II )
(Click on thumbnail for larger view)
A beautiful crane was observed taking off from
the pond (last two photos on the right), but
when we attempted to position ourselves by backing up along the roadway, it was a moment
missed.
Temperatures beginning to drop and the sun
beginning to set, we captured a few more
pictures of this wet snow as we approached the U.S. Weather Bureau's covered-dome radar
tower. (See Last Day
of Spring - Part II of
what this same area looks like in the Spring).
No green grass here as these cattle forge
their way in a wooded area adjacent to our exiting
the
roadway.
