We're on to week 11 in the Photo52 challenge already, with a timely theme this week of "Green"! Details here
I'm going to share with you some Evergreens that I love on my #WednesdayWalk around my place in the Boreal forest of Saskatchewan, Canada.
Starting with the magnificent white spruce at the head of our lane.

As we head down the lane we come to the walking path edged with golden willows. Just before it is another stand of evergreens.

In that stand of evergreens which are spruce is one of the only coniferous trees which sheds it's needles in the winter - the tamarack.

Past the willow lane is more towering evergreens just before it breaks into our yard.

In the yard is the wood shed with a fair amount of wood left although we burnt quite a bit for it was a cold winter!

Looking another direction the view from the deck shows the trail to the neighbors lined with evergreens of spruce and pine trees.

Bruno loves to sit up on the deck surveying his domain!

He likes to watch the birds too (and chase them sometimes). We spotted a nuthatch hanging upside down on a tree stump. that is how they like to feed, upside down. You see the walking up and down the trees too! The nuthatch will hide seeds under the bark of trees or in crevises to eat later.

As the sun began to set behind the evergreen trees it created a hexagon shape with it's rays.
Sun Setting Behind the Evergreen Trees
As the sun sets behind the evergreens I'll leave you with one last view from off our deck showing the glow in the sun room and our home surrounded by large spruce and pine trees.
