The north wind doth blow,
And we shall have snow,
And what will the dormouse do then,
Poor thing?
Roll’d up like a ball,
In his nest snug and small,
He’ll sleep till warm weather comes in,
Poor thing.
Traditional ballad, The North Wind Doth Blow

The end of Winter is looking beautiful in your place!
Thanks a lot for that, Alexander. I hope it’s the end of a very cold weather and not the start of an extremely icy spring. But only time will show 🙂
It should be added that the relatively small snowfall, making the light and the walk very pleasant ❤
We cannot predict what the weather behavior. However the pictures are beautiful.
Thank you Alexander, it was a lovely walk 🙂
It is an east wind for us….so far not much snow in our part of the UK but icy which brings its own hazards 🙂
David, I like your expression: Brings its own hazards 🙂 The wind here is also easterly. But the Northern Wind has a certain ring to it just as in the ballad. It’s usually very cold from those two directions 🙂 so I allowed myself a certain amount of artistic freedom 🙂
Beautiful scenery. I also like the ballad!
That’s the best part of living in a northern country the changing seasons. So many colours to enjoy. Thanks a lot, Montucky!
Beautiful images, if a little cold, Hanna. 🙂 🙂 In our version it’s Cock Robin but it comes to the same thing.
I love that kind of weather, Jo. A blue sky and drifting white clouds ❤ That's a perfect weather to go exploring 🙂 though I wouldn't mind the coast of Algarve either 🙂
Speaking of Cock Robin Jo you should see this video from a fellow blogger Annica in Sweden
Enjoy your walks!!!
Oh dear! I’d have to hibernate, Hanna
🙂
Haha! Love your humour, Jo 🙂 …but impressive snow landscape.
Stunning view!
Hi Indah. Thank you! It really was enjoyable 🙂
Oj så vackert Hanna! ❤
Selv tak, Annica. Sneen lyser op i landskabet, når det behøves allermest ❤ 🙂
