If it keeps raining, and then freezes, droplets like these will become icicles.
I will be keeping an eye on the temperatures over the weekend. It's predicted to get colder as I mentioned. Just how much colder is not clear. I have to decide when to go cover the fig tree with freeze-protective fabric. Little buds have formed and I don't want to lose them. The same with the bulb patch I planted last fall. The daffs and tulips are up and I don't want to take the chance that they'll freeze, so my plan is to cover them with some leaves for insulation.
It would be a shame to see damage to those buds. We’ve been old to expect extreme winds today. So far, calm and partly sunny. The droplets photo is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYes, that droplets photo is yet another beauty by you, Walt.
ReplyDeleteKeeping up with the buds and the weather is something I never thought about when I was younger. I haven't checked to see if any of our daffodils are pushing up, but it certainly seems too early for that here.
Fleurs d'eau?
ReplyDeletelooks like diamonds (or swarovski crystals)!
ReplyDeletemitch, if the sun ever comes up (20 minutes to go!), it will be a nice sunny morning here. Yippee!
ReplyDeletejudy, thanks! Our winters are milder, so now is the time for the bulbs to start showing up. But they started a few weeks ago!
chm, oui! LOL
anne marie, they do!
Oh Walt, this photo took my breath away. Bravo.
