Happy Thursday & Happy February everyone!
Jan 20th, hubby and I took a walk on the NCR bike trail, the river next to the trail had some snow and ice all along the river bank. The birds were spooking easy just from us walking down the trail. So no bird photos were taken. We did see and hear Mourning Doves, Chickadees and Titmouse, Wrens, Sparrows and Kinglets all along the trail.

A look down the trail.
There is a small waterfall section of the river, that was still very frozen.
We stood on the dam and looked over, the dam gates were open letting water out. One side of the rivers edge was frozen from the dam gate water.

oh it sounds your area beard lots of snow lately dear eileen!
trails look fabulous but little barren as i am used to see lots of birds in your captures always still nature's each angle is splendid !
hope you are perfectly fine as here we though did not have snow in southern part of country still our northern area are having heavy snow and this is why cold winds are causing flu and fever everywhere
When you have a view like that, my friend, you don't need the birds for a visual (perhaps a musical accompaniment would be nice!) What a gorgeous day and how very beautiful that water is. I love it.
I am a skywatcher and I wish I were as good a sky photographer as you are! Thank you for letting me know that you occasionally take walks where the birds do not cooperate. It gives me hope! That is a beautiful trail -- and I am sure it felt wonderful to get outside and move.
Looks like a very pleasant walk indeed.
A beautiful walk. It shows the beauty of winter. I really like the frozen waterfall and the winter moon.
I would love to ride a bike there, how nice at all is.
Hello,
Beautiful walk! It looks very pretty. Wonderful photos of the pink sky.

Amazing place. Great post. Thanks for sharing beautiful pics.
Beautiful! Proper winter photos - we haven't had appreciable snow for years.
Pretty scenery along the trail!
Lovely snow and icy scenes. Maybe there was someone else further down the track, or an animal that scared the birds. Super sky with a crescent moon.
Wonderful photos! I love the frozen waterfall and those beautiful skies.
...lovely things to be thankful for.
Oh what a beautiful sight to see. Thank you for sharing, the water is so clear and blue. Truly beautiful! ~Dazee~
What a beautiful trail to have at your fingertips to enjoy whenever you wish. We all should be so lucky.
Sweet shots. And I could hear the birds!

Looks like a great place for a walk. At least you heard the birds!
As soon as I realize we have a clearish sky in the late afternoon I start watching for some color!
beautiful walk and gorgeous skies!
i always enjoy your photos and yes to being a skywatcher, i love the sky no matter what it is doing at the time. I prefer it when warm but still beautiful. frozen waterfalls are fine as long as i am looking at a photo.. brrrrrr
What a great place for a walk! We're still waiting for snow to melt, a long time yet. Enjoy your spring like weather and think of us up here stuck in a snowbank. Lol
Beautiful images of winter, superb.
Thanks for sharing your photo walk with us. It looks like a great place.
I always love reading your thankful notes. The USA needs a lot more of that.
Lovely shots, Eileen! That water would be bone cold.

Great looking spot to explore nature...Love the moon & sky shots.
Sometimes winter wears on me, but I love your shots with the shades of brown with the sunshine. Thanks for linking up today, Eileen. Have a GREAT weekend!
The frozen waterfall is interesting.
Worth a Thousand Words
That's a very pretty river, with snow lining the sides. Beautiful sky shots, and nice moon capture!
Another beautiful spot to explore. Beautiful sunset for sure. That frozen and running water really is something to see!
Oh my - the colors of the sky with that sliver of moon is so pretty!
I am thankful for your lovely posts. Always a pleasure to visit.

Hi Eileen, the frozen dam looks a bit scary, but the sunset collage photos are all very beautiful, mesmerizing actually.
Isn't it amazing to watch rushing water!
Nice skies, and nice creek too!
a busy sky lined with contrails
Beautiful colours.
Beautiful pictures. I have not cycle for many years. I love sky watching too!
Hi Eileen,
marvelous photos of the nature and the light in January.
I wish you a sunny weekend.
Best, Synnöve
Hello Eileen, I'm glad you got to hear the birds on your walk at least. The photos show everything so beautifully. It would have been a very brisk walk with all that snow still around perhaps.
Magnificent sunset photos - such glorious colours... you often manage to capture such beauties! I loved seeing that little sliver of moon.
Cheers to you, Sue xx

Beautiful pictures and a great place for taking a walk.
I love a pink sky.
That was a beautiful winter day. I am definitely a skywatcher.
A frozen waterfall and gorgeous pink skies--you always find something beautiful on your walks, Eileen.
I like the four images together.
Good morning Eileen, Yes I did enjoy your captures, it was like being there too. I had hoped to tour more outdoor places while I was in Alabama recently but my daughter had our schedules pretty tight! My shopping adventure (1) with Lyra was at their outdoor mall, which is the best way to shop.
love water and streems whereever I find it. This place looks just right for me :)
oooh it does look cold... but so beautiful!
