It was -14 Degrees Celsius today but with the 26 km/h wind it felt like my face would freeze off in no time. Fortunately we were in the car out of the wind most of the time.
Thanks for looking.

Looks to me like the bird is a lot tougher than you are, Karl. Whatever...nice image!

Lovely, Karl- worth the freeze. Beautiful clear markings-like the open beak.

A beautifully detailed capture of this pretty subject in the snow, Karl! and yes, that would be more than cold enough for me!

A great wintertime scene, Karl. Love how the tones in the grass match the bird. Well done in extreme weather!
