Winter White. White Dead-Nettle, Lamium album, Océ-weerd, Venlo, The Netherlands

            For an hour or so earlier this morning the sky here over the banks of the Meuse River in Venlo was bright blue. You can see it marvelously reflected in the now high, fast-flowing waters of the River. In the background a ship of Van de Graaf & Meeusen Rivertransports is fighting its red way upstream towards Maastricht and the border with Belgium.
I went out for a walk of course to see what I could see. Here's a pretty winter-hard White Dead-Nettle, Lamium album. No Bumblebees around yet to suck its deep-lying nectars. But if the present unseasonable temperatures hold, that won't be for long.
