Consecutive days of snowfall have turned our park into a winter wonderland, making for some wonderful photo opportunities. The tree branches and fence rails are heavily laden with snow, and the wildlife have gone into “mooching mode.” With a deep blanket of snow covering their source of food, the animals have become conditioned to turn to humans for help. I posted more about this phenomenon here in my Blipfoto journal. Last winter we had very little snow. It was an easy winter for drivers and for the wildlife, but this week, just the second week of this winter, has been very different. Since Wednesday (four days ago), we have been blessed (depending on your point of view) by something like 15 inches of snow. It’s beautiful and makes for pretty pictures. It really is a winter wonderland. I hope you enjoy the pictures (Click on the first picture to open up the gallery).
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed the snowy walk.

They are beautiful photos! I love the arching trees one. Near where I used to live, there was a little back road that used to turn into a magical avenue of glistening white trees when it snowed. It always reminded me of Narnia! Happy New Year.

Narnia would be a good comparison for the scenes I saw in the snowy park. Thanks for commenting.
