2/7/2025, land L, 10:15-12:00pm
Chilly, sunny morning
Gleaming icy puddles
Birds sing spring preparations
Sun works to melt lake and swarovskis waters
Geese above announce arrivals in pairs of twos and fours
American coots float majestically and with intention
Snow gulls sit fluffed and huddled
First glimpse of blue heron on icy banks of 11
Evidence of beaver trails crystallized in ice
Something dead in the water? A bird?
Brightest hint of green in thawing ground
Flashing darts of cardinal red
Rock in Earth: Love Life
Sun so warm in the frosty air
Strewn white wiry tufts of some poor soul
Snow melt returns stream back under Bridge1-2
Rising water submerges a few small islands in 1
Distant thoughts of spring a glimmer
