Frosted

Spent the whole day, from about 6:45 a.m.. (to those of you who know me well, yes, A.M.!) till early evening, on a Christmas Bird Count east of the city, in the Drumheller area. I hadn't been out this way for maybe 12 years, so I REALLY appreciated the chance to be driven out there today! Not a bad day weather-wise, though it was very cold. Dropped down to -21C, but had soared to a balmy -4C when we got back to Calgary. Photographed these berries on a farm whilst looking to see what birds were around.
