I’ve been going on about how beautiful it is with all the snow. It’s not all good though, for example the trees are starting to suffer under the extra weight. The birches in particular are having a tough time and I’ve seen a few trees that have already given up the fight and cracked under the weight. Nature is resilient though… most of the trees will bounce back up once the weight is gone. One of my amusements is to shake a bent tree so the snow will fall off, then when you let go the tree springs straight up. It’s not advisable to do this with big trees though, LOL!
