Don't you love those days that become special for the simplest of reasons? This morning the world was a winter wonderland, the landscape was breathtakingly beautiful in places as I drove from March to Downham Market via a back route to avoid a road closure on my usual route. The trees were magnificent against the clear blue sky, dark trunks and frosted foliage. As I drove alongside the bank that runs beside the Welney Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust I noticed the barbed wire fence was all encrusted with frost too and I couldn't resist the opportunity to hop out the car with my camera, revelling in my mission to get an interesting pic for Blipfoto! As I stood there taking a few shots the silence was wonderful, only broken by the muted honking of geese on the reserve. It was a perfect moment. ;o) On my way home, I had just turned onto a bridge across the river when a pair of magnificent Whooper swans that had just taken off from the river flew in front of me about a car's length ahead and only about 10 feet off the ground, it was a beautiful sight. Happy days! ;o)
Have a look at Rob and Ric's posts for today. ;o)
