#Wetlands inspection: does the snow smell good?

#IdaPsięta #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia

The #wetlands of #Polesia are thawing way too early, but the only blue skies we can see are down-under.

The sun was out today so we could take a longer walk in the #wetlands with #IdąPsięta

Temperature is up so it's not very difficult to find a watering hole, where one can either drink or sink.

Winter maneuvers – continued. Someone will get his frozen ass bitten off.

This is not something one expects on a forest track rather far from any body of water. I'm a bit sorry both for the fish and for the bird that managed to catch it but lost the struggle to bring it home.

Drinking in wrong places can be dangerous.

The arcs made by grasses in the snow show how wind directions varied since the last snowfall.

The level of water on our #wetlands is still a bit low, but it's getting better. Unfortunately Vuko, the wetlands protector, is just a small dog and won't be able to do much when draining of those meadows starts in the spring. He's has great teeth, but they don't work on treads of heavy machines.

Zosia seems to like #wetlands. This miht not be apparent from this picture, but all the other were blurred.

Our last car went down. 1.5 km from the house. Oh, well, mud and water. You love them and you hate them when living in a bog.

Our #wetlands are thawing. Guess there'll be no ice-skating this year.

Foggy. Wet. Cold. Gloomy.

It's not too cold to make another #DogMonument
