Eliza Waters 
Frosted but cheerful!
Thanks, Audrey, hats and gloves a must!
Here as well! -6C predicted for tonight, and snow!
This looks beautiful!
Thank you, Anne. A fine treat for the birds!
Lovely!
Thank you, Dale!
Pleasure is mine, Eliza
How beautiful Eliza. Merry Christmas! 🔔🎉🎅🎁🎄
Thank you, Cindy, the same to you! x
A lovely Christmas card!
Thank you, Allison!
What a beautiful sight at this time of year
Thank you, Vicki. The birds love these and can wipe a bush clean in hours!
Great shot
Thank you, Sheree!
I do love berries, but there aren’t any frosted ones here — not yet, at least. On Thursday temperatures will be dropping 30-50 degrees in 8-12 hours, depending on how warm it gets ahead of the front. Our noses will be the color of your berries!
Bundle up and stay warm!
Very pretty. Merry Christmas.
Thank you, Eunice, same to you!
Well captured! Perfect berries for the birds.
Thank you, Hien. Yes, they do love Ilex berries!
Very pretty. The birds have almost picked mine clean.
Thank you, Judy. Same here, every year they seem to come earlier and earlier. I’ve given up having berries in arrangements. Even in wreaths they’ll pluck them out!
Very pretty! Winter cold and up close…
Thank you, Barbara!
Ready for Christmas. Are you expecting a white one? Believe it or not, they are teasing us with snow here on the Gulf Coast.
Wow, snow there? That’d be a rare treat. We already have had 2 storms, so it does look like we’ll have a white Christmas this year. Another storm coming through Thurs/Fri., so Santa’s sleigh won’t have a problem getting through. 🙂
Love it!
Thanks, Val! ❤
Frosting always makes things prettier! Ready for the feast!
🙂 Thanks, Alice!
❤️🤗❤️

Frosted berries are one of my favorite winter scenes.
Thanks, Laurie, it is an irresistible sight!
It is indeed!
They appear as though dusted in sugar. Pretty and bright!
Thank you, Belinda!

Wonderful image, Eliza.
Thank you kindly, Jane!
These look delicious — icy cold berries (with a tiny sprinkling of sugar) are superb!!
The berry-loving birds agree! 🙂
Lovely colors, looks like winterberry, and I see from your tags that’s is indeed what it is.
Thank you, Tom, you guessed right!
Those berries put a smile on my face! Nice capture.
Thank you, Lisa. Glad you liked them!
Lovely but I can’t imagine how cold it must be. We were in the mid-high 50s today (up a little) and I’ve been shivering all day.
FYI, the bird I identified by default as an immature house finch has been identified as a spice finch or nutmeg mannikin by another commentator and I think he/she is correct. It’s native to Asia but the Audubon Society added it to California’s state list in 2013 or thereabout.
Ah, there it is! I knew there was something a bit exotic about it. Thanks for letting me know.
It takes 2 weeks to acclimate to cold (blood corpuscles shrink away from epidermis), so when it gets cold fast, you feel it. Of course I wear down in winter, but today was low 30s and I thought it was just about perfect! 😀
Very pretty, Eliza!
Thank you, Donna!
Gorgeous!
Thank you, Sylvia!
Such seasonal beauty. Whenever I see robin eats frosted berries, I’m reminded that Alaska has the highest per-capita ice cream consumption in the country. Frigid temperatures don’t preclude a preference for frozen foods. 😊
🙂 I love that!
This is closely related to the possumhaw we have in Texas. With the temperature about to drop well below freezing here on Friday, we may see a similar sight.
I thought that when I saw your post. Ilex is a beautiful genus.
Stay warm, Steve!
This is a beautiful wintry close-up … great work!
Thank you very much, Denise! 🙂
👌👌👌
Add some ice cream and you’ve got a nice winterberry sundae. 🙂
🙂 Thanks, Steve… I think I’ll leave them for the birds.
