Frost and Ice
It's incredibly cold out there today! I had a lovely walk through Colinton Dell, by the Water of Leith, doing my weekly voluntary patrol, picking litter (not much) and recording wildlife (quite a lot).

gorse usually blooms all year, but looks particularly striking in the frost
meanwhile the bramble leaves are icy
as are the cones of the larch I studied for Tree Following
and even the ivy leaves in the shade of the larch

Pretty frosty images..Looks like a pretty place to watch the wildlife.. It is great that you help by picking up the litter.. Have a happy day!
Such lovely photos, Juliet ... but what a frosty walk! Small snowflakes here today, but only frost lying.
Good for you. I do ditch-digging 3 times a year, or so. If I keep on top of it it isn't so bad. The frost is beautiful! We have -20 C. this morning. A bit chilly.
really pretty - especially the ivy!
This is an example of how winter holds so much beauty :)
Well as they say - there is not bad weather, just bad clothing. You got the best of a frosty one!
Beautiful winter post. I need to get out when it warms up a bit...
