I had a bunch of short videos over the last few weeks- showing some of our #winter #weather- strong #wind, trees down #frost #snow etc + the Cross-quarter Day #Meteņi #Imbolc #WaitingForSpring
I pulled it all together in a blog post with videos, more pics and blabber.
#Alberta #Canada I'll post all the YouTube and Spectra links + extra photos in this thread

Spring in Rhône valley. We will still have to wait a few months until our beloved Rhône valley will look like this but we hardly can't wait to enjoy these peaceful mornings with a relaxed run along the small waterways through the vineyards, when the first rays of sunlight touch the mountains.
And the petals begin to fall.
Happy Metenis / #Meteņi - #Latvian 'Waiting for Spring' mid-winter festival! I always forget the dates for these things, but by luck, someone made a nice cornmeal pone this morning!
I'll try my luck making some simple wreaths to burn with wild grass/vetch stems!
Here's a video from 2021 looking at Metenis, blog post in replies

Some years ago, someone had forgotten this flower here.
Good morning Mastodon,
Today’s photo shows a magnificent tree clinging on the edge of a short cliff. The shot was taken at the University of Nottingham campus. Beautiful winter light and a background of blue sky help to really emphasise the intricate web of branches reaching out over the void.
