This is a glimpse into my backyard. Buddy and I have been taking advantage (well, I have, he just trots along for moral support!) of the snow coating the ground. The above photo shows some of the tidal stream that flows through our property. The cold temps have formed a thin layer of ice on the brook and it shifts when the tide changes.
First of several hearts I have spotted over the past couple of days.
This heart is broken into many pieces....
Ice covering the stream, smooth as a mirror but not thick enough to step on. In the lower left side of the photo there is a white "spot" which I photographed and you will see below...
This photo is of a leaf frozen into the ice. It looks pretty with the frosty edging all around it.
Another photo of the thin ice that is covering the stream and its banks.
This photo is looking towards our home. This huge piece of ice was so pretty with the sun shining upon it. The beauty of the outdoors more than makes up for the cold weather.
This is a neat heart I think. The bygone flower seems to have a protective heart around it.
Here's a frosty heart. We have had a day or two of temps in the teens and today felt almost summer-ish at a warm 30 degrees! I am hoping we do get some more snow so I can continue with snowshoeing, hope to get out into the woods when there is more snow.

Great pics, Cheryl. Glad you are getting out and about. :)
so pretty...so cold...
I always love seeing all of your photos on Facebook, Cheryl... You can find hearts anywhere... You are the "Heart Queen" of the WORLD.... That is awesome...
Thanks for sharing.
Hugs,
Betsy
There is a human face on top of the broken heart.
He seems to be so sad.
oooh, that leaf frozen into the pond! be well Cheryl and take care :)
Loved the photos of the unique hearts and frosty leaf, Cheryl. Your photo of the frozen stream in the sunshine looks very cold!
Hi Cheryl...Glad your getting out on your snowshoes ...I have to dust mine of and get going!
I love your hearts..it took me a minute to see the broken one : }

Wasn't that a crazy storm we had last week...but the crust was gorgeous!! I think I got more snow then you though, but the rain just poured here!!
Hope your feeling well !

Amazing that you found so many hearts and I love that frosty leaf.
It's so pretty there! 30 degrees?! Today here was in the 60's. Sigh. Anyway, I love your pictures and hearts and am so envious of your winter and snow shoeing.
Hello, I am a new follower, where
are you , that looks like you could live on my cove in Maine.
I swear, it looks so much like here. yvonne
The leaf with the frosty edging is a great shot. You have a way of finding the best hearts in nature, and now leaves too.
It appears I am with the majority as I love the leaf on the pond.
All the hearts you find makes me smile, Cheryl. Thank you so much for sharing them with us and sending love our way.
These hearts are AMAZING. Beautiful photos, even though they make me cold! :-)
Look forward to more hearts in the Spring!
Great pictures! LOVE the heart! :) Erin
The hearts are so cute, but the leaf on the ice is stunning! Great winter series!
Photos are nice and pretty, but look oh so cold. It seems as Abe and I get older, we chill quicker and take longer to warm up again. Perhaps we need a thermal suit to wear and a switch that says, warm, extra warm, and down right hot. LOL
I always love to see your photos, Cheryl. These are splendid snow photos with the hearts. I hope your are feeling well. Thanks for visiting my blog.
I love this post and the theme of hearts. I just found your blog, through a mutual blogger. As your most recent follower, I look forward to your visit and comments

Hi Cheryl, my goodness you were almost in my back yard at Port Clyde. I may take a ride down
by you soon. I have to go to Brunswick to a DR and maybe Falmouth. Gosh it's a long ride..
Suns out and I am waiting for Boston to win.

These are just so spectacular. You have a keen eye for beauty.
how fun-gorgeous photos
Beautiful! I really miss the snow. It's been 80F and above several times in the last month.
I've never tried snowshoeing but I hope to someday.
Hi Cheryl, beautiful pics! I've always loved winter....it's so different.
How you doin'? Wishing you a happy Valentine and 2 moons, *wink*.
Keep a song in your heart.
Lee.
There's so much love in every photo.
