Fountain Creek Regional Park (Area 5) 4-4-17

63
Snow day today!  Power out in the a.m. from wet, heavy snow - but much nicer this afternoon - lots of pretty birds on a short walk.

At my house - it never really went backward, that's just the camera frame rate interfering with the rate of the pinwheel.
