For more than thirty years I've been wandering the woods and waterways of Saratoga County, New York, and regions nearby, looking closely, listening carefully, and recording what I experience. We are blessed in this region with an amazing amount of wilderness right at hand. With this blog I share my year-round adventures here, seeking out what wonders await in my own Madagascar close to home.

MORE Snow! Yay!
It snowed all day long today. Not heaps and heaps of it, but enough to make the roads too slippery to venture very far from home for a walk in the woods. I made it to Orra Phelps Nature Preserve in Wilton and decided I'd better stop there, rather than trying to make it over the mountain to the Hudson River. But Orra's place was lovely enough, with marshmallow banks along a rushing stream.
You can't tell from the photos above nor from the photo right below that the air was filled with snow gently falling, falling, falling, showering a mist throughout the forest and prickling my cheeks made warm and rosy from huffing and puffing through deepening drifts.
There! I took a flash shot of the same scene as above to show how the air was just filled with falling snow.
Great pics mam...living in South California, its like wonderland for me...
