Sky Watch Friday - Mountain skies

The largest system of ice caves on our planet.
The rain was pouring down, and heavy clouds were rising towards the sky again.

Looking out of the entrance of the caves.

Some typical Alpine birds :)


I have posted more photos about the ice caves here!

    I really like the photo looking out the cave's mouth. And it looks like you must have been quite far up!
    Happy Sky Watch!

    Excellent!!! How high up are the caves? We have some ice caves near here but they are closed off because some ice has fallen and I suppose someone could get hurt. I hope everyone is well again in your household. MB

    Hallo Maria,
    dem Himmel so nah aber trotzdem eisig. Ein wunderbarer Ausblick.
    ... und die netten scharzen Gesellen haben schon bessere Möglichkeiten die Aussicht zu geniessen.
    Ein schönes Wochenende.
    Gruss Hartmut

    Maria, your posts on the caves are phantastic, I'll have to come back and explore a lot more. Ive been a bit snowed under lately.

    Habe mich nicht entfremdet, es sind nur ein paar Sachen letztens schiefgelaufen. Komme bald wieder um mich ordentlicher herunzuschauen
    Alles Liebe, Arij

    The caves are very beautiful but I think I would have been too afraid to go inside them!
