Meanwhile the dippers were very excitable, singing and chasing each other along the river. Another lovely bird sighting was a flock of blackbirds, redwings and chaffinches under some trees. Oh and I saw a pair of bullfinches, back to when I first started regularly walking the Dells, I'd see these finches every week, then I stopped seeing them but I'm now seeing them more regularly again, which is nice!

What lovely pictures!! What a lovely winter wonderland!!
It was 12 below zero this morning which is 10.4 on the celsius scale.
NOT a good morning for a walk. The wild turkeys in the wooded lot are sitting in the sun with their feathers all fluffed up conserving energy. It's supposed to warm up by the week end--thank goodness!
beautiful wonderland! :)
Beautiful icy branches on the trees.
Bullfinches must look stunning against a snowy background. I miss seeing dippers. One of my favourite birds when we lived in Yorkshire.
I remember that, it had to be definitely warmer than now at the end of 2012. Splendid photos.
You had snow over the pond, didn't you?!
Cheers from Cottage Country!
Hi Juliet,
Beautiful winter wonderland photos and glad you could see some little birds. Often think how cold it must be for them.

Very pretty snowy scenes from your walk. The trees in the second shot are gorgeous. The Dippers must hardy birds to be able to stand that cold water. Great outing, thanks for sharing.
Brrrr . Pretty. Great snowflake pix ... gosh! No two are exactly alike! (Well - you can almost see that in the pic.)
Just beautiful!
fascinating winter landscapes! I clicked to see the snowflakes...beautiful!!
Ah, so the snow has reached there at last Juliet.
It is always so special to find the smallest detail and be able to admire its beauty. I am glad you were able to share that with Nature Notes...Michelle
