The theme this week for a Second Look is the weather. It was a week of variable weather with cold, warm, sunny, cloudy, and breezy days. The only thing we didn't have was frozen precipitation. That's coming today. What is it they say about weather? "The only thing certain about the weather is that it will change."
Below, see what the weather was like this week while I was exploring and some of the things I found.
COLD Frost on wild strawberry |
CLOUDY Feather under bird feeder |
SUNNY Holly berries |
SUNNY Roots girdling one of our maple trees. So far, there is no obvious damage from this, but it can't be good. |
CLOUDY The Snow-on-the-Mountain (Bishop's Weed) has survived the frosts so far. |
BREEZY Coneflower seed heads (It took several tries before the picture didn't come out blurry because the seeds were blowing in the wind..) |
RAINY Deer watching me ready to flee. |
SUNNY and WARM Fungus on decomposing tree stump |

change once in a while. ~Kin Hubbard

The frost and roots photos are very striking.
