Death of a Snowman

It snowed most of the day yesterday and when we were out walking HB we noticed this sculpted snowbear. Jarkko took this picture with his mobile and when I returned about 15 minutes later with my 10D, someone had already decapitated him :( Whomever built it sculpted lovely eyes, ears along with a smiling mouth and protruding snout. A flourish of an evergreen sprig was placed on top of its head for a final touch. I wanted to drape my scarf around his neck and get a much nicer picture of it since it was so whimsical.

It warmed up overnight and began to rain so most of the snow is gone now anyway.
