Rödluvan in the snow Part 11 Spring-winter 2008 |
 |
|
|
2008-03-28. Me in the park
with the ducks. I took the picture myself by holding the
camera in front of me. Spring-winter is the time of the year when it still is winter. But it's lighter and the sun begins to warm. People can go out on skies or walk and ejoy the sun on the clear white snow. But int spring-winter there also can come weather backslash with icy wind and sleet. |
|
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. I went to the ducks. There was ice on the pond. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. The ducks were waiting for me | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Some males waiting for food. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. One male said "quack, quack!" all the time. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. A beautiful female. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. This female is not afraid and dare to be on the bridge railing near me and take a bit of bread. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Now she took the bread out of my hand. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Yummy! | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. She got another bit. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. The brown mallard with the white breast was still there. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. The ducks were following me. It looked so funny :-) | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Many ducks in the water waiting for food. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. A duck on the ice. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. CAN I GET MORE FOOD? Aw, so near she came to me! | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Thanks! | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. More ducks on the ice. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Sleeping ducks | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. This duck was drinking from a puddle. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. The ducks came flying to me. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Landing. | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. There is a cone beside the snow clod | |
 |
|
| 2008-03-28. Male on the ice. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-02. It seemed to be spring. The snow disappeared on most places. Then the squirrel could find the food that was left on the ground. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-02. But then I happened to scare the squirrel and it went up in the tree and was looking at me. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-02. After that the squirrel took a jump and disappeared in the pines. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Now the pond was free from ice and the snow had melted on the path. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. The ducks were eating the food in the glistening water. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. And the water began to drop down from the roof. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. A female on the bridge railing. But she was too afraid to take the food from my hand. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Ducks standing in a ring. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Ducks with the creek. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Her you can see the outlet from the underground creek. This makes that the a bit of the pond never will freeze. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. A little girl, who also had a red hood, fed the ducks. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Here the ducks were following me again. The path was wet now because of the melting snow. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Here they are following me again when I walked back to the bridge. | |
 |
|
|
2008-04-04. Shall I sing a song for
you? Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack! |
|
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. QUACK, QUACK ! :-) | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Two male came in a fight! | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. Here they were fighting near me. You can see my shadow. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04.The winner male got the female. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. The ducks enjoyed the spring winter. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. A fight again. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. But this duck took it easy. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-04. The other side of the creek, later it will run down into the river. | |
 |
|
| 2008-05-05. I bought 3 yellow tulips on bulbs on my way home from work. The sun was shining and the snow was melting away. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-07. Spring?? FORGET IT !!!! :-( | |

 |
|
| I was dreaming about last summer. The summer rain made paerls on the lilacs. This picture was taken 2007-06-13. | |
 |
|
| The same day the Spanish fox Zorro moved in into my home. what a wonderful day this was. | |
 |
|
| But still it was winter. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-11. I bought these purple tulips. To make spring indoors. | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-13. It was snowing again! | |
 |
|
| 2008-04-13. I was a little while on the balcony. And made a grumpy face for the photo. It looks so funny with that face , he, he, crazy Mrs Hood! :-). | |
 |
|
|
2008-04-13. A cold wind was blowing
and the snow drifted to the door. I was longing for spring.
I was thinking of this poem. It hurts when the buds burst.
Of course it hurts when buds burst. |
