Breath Of Winter Blows Over Crescent Beach

WIND RUFFLED some feathers on Saturday. Although the southwest of BC has mild winters in contrast to the rest of Canada, weather surprises give us something to talk about. It can change daily from relatively warm and soggy to blustery and bitterly cold.

An unexpected chill turned muddy puddles into crunchy pockets of cracked ice. Flurries of wet snow were predicted for Sunday but (as I write this) have yet to appear.

  2. Fantastic shot of the magnificent bird and now I know what makes the crunchy pockets of cracked ice. We've been having them and I wasn't sure what was behind ice looking like that.

  10. Nice shots of how the weather affect nature! The second image looks like cracked sugarcoating on the chocolate cake. This winter season seems to be the record coldest in most part, but “unexpected” or sudden change of weather seems to be happening often. After a few days of unexpected April-like warmth, the cold came back with a vengeance.
