2025 has come to a close, and I am thrilled to be actually wrapping up the Views from the Pond from the final two months of the year. I hope to stay on track in 2026 with two months per post. Fingers crossed!
In November, we got some more much needed rain, and the pond got back to a better level. The colors of fall were still mesmerizing, but the temperature was going down. We were able to get out and weed the brook, after it became overgrown during the drought. It was a lot of work- but worth it, as we got lots of rain right after we finished, and the water had somewhere to go. Fall went out with brilliance!
December was cold! There was some snow, which always looks beautiful. I do love the atmosphere of the pond and trees in the wintertime- there's a magical feeling for sure! We ended the month with super cold temperatures and lots of wind. I am ready for some warmer temps for sure.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy some pond views of the end of 2025.
November 2025
Still lots of colors to be seen!
Love the clouds in this one!
The sky and the trees look so beautiful together.
Just look at that orange! Love it!
So vibrant!
The brook- overgrown with weeds from the drought.
The bottom of the brook still had a lot of weeds- just a different kind.
The colors and the reflection were so stunning.
After the weeding!
So much better!
Finally, a place for the water to flow again. It started raining as we were
finishing up. We didn't quite finish- but it is MUCH better!
Reflections in the rain.
So many stars out that night!
The leaves are mostly gone. Goodbye November.
December 2025
The month began cold, damp, and some wet snow.
There's a nip in the air for sure!
The snow is calm and peaceful.
Some water is back in the brook! Yay!
Chilly morning before work.
The snow gave a festive feel!
Brrrrrrrr
The last night of the year and the moon was out early.
Goodbye 2025 and Hello 2026!
I have loved sharing pictures of my views from the last year. Thanks for stopping by and visiting. Cheers to a wonderful 2026!
I especially enjoyed your pictures in November. We started winter early here, and I can't wait to see some green.
ReplyDeleteWhat a difference after weeding that brook. And some of those colors are amazing.
