Over the last couple of days we have warmed up enormously (went from -39C to -5C) and the sun’s power has increased enough to cause some snow shrinkage.
Happy Saturday.

That’s quite the drastic change in temperature. I love how the snow is still clinging on and that the needles are all pointing up like they don’t care.
Yes, definitely! On Monday I was bundled into a heavy parka and mitts and by Friday those were too hot to wear! The recent snowfall was really starting to shrink in places where the sun was shining on it.
You can almost feel spring. Here we went from +8 to -24. Enjoy. Allan
Ugh. Sorry to hear, Allan. That’s the wrong direction, but I hope it’s not for long.
Nature must have a plan for that particular construction. Maybe water the stem? Hmm…
I think this is for water retention. Even though there’s no shortage of moisture here (snow, rain) this tree is on a slope, so it might be struggling a bit.
Interesting
Looks like a bristly brush with shaving foam on/in it.
Yes! It definitely does – a great description.
Neat. That almost looks like a flower. We just got 3 inches of snow on Thursday night and it’s almost melted away today. For the first time in a couple of months we’re going to see temps near 40 this week (4c). It’ll feel like a heatwave.
Yes, it’s quite an interesting needle configuration. I understand about relative temperature making you feel like you’re having a heatwave! Have a good weekend, Lori. 🙂
Those almost look like flowers! What a great picture and such a different perspective 🙂
Right? They are almost like little upturned hands.
