Still Standing


I first photographed this tree 5 years ago.  It's hard to believe its still standing.

Trundra swans and a short-eared owl

Post date: Feb 21, 2008
Hike date: a few days ago

We went back to Middle Creek on a sunny day and this time saw the tundra swans. The lake behind the tree is full of swans! It was a beautiful sunset and we stood watching the swans land on the pond until we couldn't feel our fingers. We met a bird enthusiast while we were there. She told us that the bird I photographed just after getting out of the car was a short-eared owl.




Snow Geese

50,000 Migrating snow geese. What else can I say. It was pretty amazing, it's happening right now and if you are close enough to visit it's worth seeing. We drove out to Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area in Kleinfeltersville, PA (I love the name of the town!) and I took these photos right before it started to rain.
