Sunny January day

January was not easy for us. But sometimes it's beautiful. Frosts, thaws, blizzards and again frosts. The sun is in short supply. Only occasionally pampers with blue skies and sunny days. It's cloudy again today and it's snowing all day. But the sun was shining yesterday morning. Happy all day. Only occasionally the sun was embarrassed and hid behind the clouds. But it quickly returned again, scattering rays. In such wonderful weather, I went for a walk in a distant park. I chose this route specifically to enjoy nature as much as possible on a beautiful frosty day.

In this weather, I love to walk along the river. It's a completely different feeling when you are on the river. Such a blessing! I lingered on the river in order to feel the joy of the blue sky, the bright sunny day, the silence as much as possible.

And now I'm on the other side. Although it would be great to walk on a frozen river.

And on the shore, friendly reed beds rejoice in the sun and a beautiful day. They shook their heads slightly in the light breeze.

There were still seeds on the trees that had not been touched by the bullfinches. They love them.

I can not pass indifferently red rowan berries, glowing under the rays of the sun. These are the berries loved by many birds. But we grow so many mountain ash for the joy of the birds that it lasts almost until the very spring.

I love this place. A small rocky shore beckons the eye under a roof of blue sky.

I didn't walk further down the sidewalk. I saw a path trodden in the snow and climbed a hillock. I would like to get away from people. There was hope that I would see birds. I love watching them and taking pictures.

But unfortunately I did not meet a single bird. The park opened six months ago after a long renovation. And there were almost no birds in it. However, I love nature.

I rejoiced at the young pine tree. Many such small pines grow there, apparently they were planted in the fall. And all of them have taken root, there are green fluffies in the snow.

I love untouched snow. Lovely birch trees stand in orderly rows on a snow-white bedspread, as if they are enjoying the rare sun.

In a sunny winter, even bare trees pierced by the rays look majestic across the dome of the blue sky.

It's already sunset time.

I love this time. The sun goes to sleep and finally gives away its last rays. Fills the sky with amazing light.

Above is a similar photo taken an hour and a half earlier. But it looks completely different. The light of the sun going to rest falls selectively. Highlights one, highlights the other. What a beautiful sunset time.

Satisfied with the walk, I returned home. Thank you for admiring the beauty of nature with me.
