snow drifts in June


Around certain trees in Amboise now, one can see what looks like feathery snow falling and collecting into drifts by the wind.   In the States, I would call these cottonwoods (a type of poplar).  I wish I could have captured this drift in the sun, but that is in short supply here these days.

    1. That's because you live in the sunny South.

  2. I had to watch twice, I was not sure if it is snow, hail or something else :)
