Greetings, friends.
Do any of my readers remember my post about my morning walk last Sunday? I can remind you.
And this morning, when I looked out the window, I already assumed that the Snow Queen had returned to us. Apparently, she forgot something in our region. But I can say that this is not a surprise to me. Let Winter show its temper in April rather than in May.
Let's go back, friends, 2 days ago. Around noon on Friday, I noticed it was starting to rain outside the window and was saddened that I had not brought an umbrella.
By evening, the rain had picked up, and on Saturday morning, it became clear that all work in the garden would have to be postponed due to the incessant rain.
In the evening, when it was dark outside, I looked out the window and saw snow.
So, Sunday morning, there was a snow cover more than 20 centimeters high on the street, and there was no electricity in the house, as in the whole village. So I decided to go for a walk with the dog.
I hadn't planned a long walk because snow was still falling from the sky, which was trying to get in my face. After looking around, I decided to head to the stadium, but when I reached the cemetery, I saw trees covered with wet snow, and I headed down the road through the cemetery towards the river.
A white snowy plain, half flooded with water. This new snow and yesterday's rain will add more water to the rivers. By the way, the weather forecast promises 2 more snowy days.
In this snow story, the only thing that bothered me at the time was that I had installed summer wheels on my car last week. But I can say that the snow left the road in the afternoon, and in the evening I got safely to my apartment in Kirov.
The dog was very happy about this renewal in nature. She kept sniffing around in the snow. I didn't let her off the leash because I was planning a short walk. And, by the way, five meters in front of us, at one point, a little weasel ran and hid in the bushes by the water. She couldn't run fast because she was literally drowning in the deep snow. My Nora did not expect to see this; she jerked after the rodent, but the leash did not allow her to catch up with this little animal.
Last week I photographed two butterflies in this place. Where are they now?
You can compare this place with what I saw last week.
She's already run away; you don't have to smell her tracks anymore.
When I came up from under the mountain to the road, I saw a strange car. Why is he standing here? Wow, there's another car. Why are they here? It's too early to look for mushrooms. This is a joke.
That's the answer. Another tree fell on the road and blocked the passage.
This has already happened several times this winter.
In the afternoon, I took another walk and discovered that after my first walk, 2 more trees had fallen on the road. But people successfully sawed them down and cleared the road.
At the end of March, when the warm weather came and the snow began to melt, the birds stopped coming to the feeder, but today they decided to eat the seeds in my dining room again. To do this, I filled them with fresh food.
Yes, this weekend went completely wrong as planned. I was going to plant blueberries and prepare a planting site for apple trees. I hope that I can do it on the next day off.
They say that Nature does not have bad weather. So that's how it was supposed to be today and yesterday
