“March comes in like a Lion and goes out like a Lamb” is one weather proverb, although while there was snow today, at least it wasn’t a major storm so maybe March came in like an angry house cat and not a lion. But hopefully it definitely will go out like a lamb.
In Like a Cat
The tree limbs were still coated with ice this morning, but by afternoon when the sun was out, some of the ice started to fall off and I got hit by falling ice when I was filling the bird feeders.
Still Icy Branches
The freezing rain today created some rather slippery surfaces and coated a lot of thing outside like these red colored branches.
Ice Coated Branches
The forecast has freezing rain tonight and tomorrow morning but I definitely don’t want to see anymore ice here. I rather have to visit the ice caves on the shore of Lake Superior to see icy tunnels and ice formations and not the slick ice on my driveway.

With a new coating of snow overnight, some of us are reaching the end of our rope when it comes to shoveling snow this year and we are ready for spring.
Winter Hanging On
The way the birds were eating the sunflower seeds during the snow storm, they might have to drop a few more seeds on the ground that the squirrels don’t find so some more sunflower heads are grown for the next winter season.

I had some big waves on my lawn and house roof but the waves were in the form of snow drifts and not lake waves. although I rather be sitting by the lake in the summer watching the waves roll in than shoveling through the snow drifts.
White Waves
Sitting by a lake watching the sun drop below the horizon on a warm summer day is more appealing than watching the wind whip the falling snow on a cold winter day.
Summer Lake Sunset
This barn may have weathered a lot of storms, but it still looks like it can weather a few more and provide some shelter during the predicted snow storm.
Weathered Old Barn
The Orange Hawkweed is an invasive weed, but I rather have this orange flower than the predicted 20 plus inches of snow this week.
