A Little Snow - Lenape Park and Whitesmill Preservation Area

This past Friday night (February 10) into early Saturday morning we had a little bit of snow accumulating about an inch. But it was fast disappearing already when we got out to enjoy it. But below are a few pictures from Lenape Park near Perkasie, Bucks County, PA and Whitesmill Preservation Area in Salford Township, Montgomery County, PA.

  1. Nice shot of your sweetheart Tim.
    I like the picture of the bend on the tree lined river and the snowcapped cat tail.
    Poor rhododendron.

  3. Tim, these pictures are wonderful. I am waiting for crocuses but no signs of them yet. And cattail with some snow on it is very interesting and lovely. And 4th, 5th and the last picture are simply amazing. Beautiful winter scenery.

    And a picture of your sweetheart is wonderful.

  4. Looks like you visited some beautiful areas. Lovely photographs, Tim! You captured the beauty of winter so very well. I was surprised to see the crocuses blooming already. I cannot select a favorite image as they all are wonderful!

  9. I prefer when the snow stays a long time not only on the ground. It must not be a powdery one. You got wonderful landscapes (and pictures), as I like them...

  11. I never tire of seeing photos of snow laden countrysides or even urban snow. It's sweltering over here in Oz, so snow is a lovely site. Your snow photos were just delightful. Thank you for sharing.
