snow silently falls
 icicles hang on branches...
 squirrel breaks the ice

Snow brings many amazing moments. Snow Angels, a Snowman. Those fun snow ball fights. Of course, sometimes icicles linger. Watch out for Squirrels!! :) Seems they like to ice skate on icicles. This is cute, clever and creative. :) Brandy

cute one, and squirrel breaks the ice can even have a double meaning if there is another squirrel on the scene!!
