Local walks 7./8.3.2018
The much too cold weather has come to an end. Today (March 7th) much above zero, and the snow is melting rapidly in the sun.
Still enough snow left in shadowy places.

March 8th: Today we get 10 °C and wind. Changing clouds are wraping the Schneeberg summit.

Back at the pond.
The melting water cannot drain into the frozen ground, so stays on the surface in large puddles.
