We did not get the big winter storm that hit in places like New York City. It missed us but we have gotten snow and it is frigid.
Now…..Poor cold mourning dove…there is food and water here in the yard…

What are you seeing in nature? It can be from your own backyard, the local park, out on a hike or anywhere. What plants and animals catch your interest? What do you find interesting in nature? Take a photo, write a post, a story, a poem, anything goes because I love to see what Mother Nature is up to in your area. PS..please check back and visit bloggers who post later in the week!
Have a wonderful nature-filled week! Please be safe.

Our Rocky Mountains had snow this weekend but it missed where I live. It has been very dry and windy here.
Pretty images!
We got about 10″ yesterday Michelle which was great. Tomorrow and the end of this week more is slated…stay safe…jp
I love watching the birds mostly doves and now a few robins in our yard and neighborhood. It’s cold here but no snow…
The bird in the snow is a beautiful shot!
We got Sunday’s storm with lots of snow. We are expecting more snow today.
Lovely photos, hope the dove finds enough to eat! Lots of snow here!
