Willow branches in the creek

The deer have been enjoying the fresh leaves on the willows and they've pulled some of the branches off the trees. I thought that the colour and shapes of these stood out really well against the busy background of everything in the bed of the seasonal creek. 
The weather forecast this morning still had the possibility of snow flurries but thankfully we didn't get any. It's really cold though, and I dressed warmly even for a quick walk around our place looking for a blip.
