The report from here in Lewes, DE was that the blizzard dropped 20.6 inches of snow. Rain mixed in with the snow for several hours, then it turned colder and the snow mounted up. Looking in the woods today I found icicles hanging from cedar trees. The late day sun shining through them made a unique and beautiful woods scene.

Here in Delaware we are supposed to have 2-3 inches of new snow tonight and possibly even more over the weekend. Today is February 2. Last year on April 5, just about two months from now, I took this photograph of maple buds. Should we still count the weeks or can we start counting the days to warmer weather?!

Last summer I visited Charleston, SC, a town I really like a lot. I photographed this carriage horse at it took some time to cool off from the hot August afternoon. I found this picture looking through my files and thought it was worth sharing.

It is another gray winter day here in Delaware today. I was thinking of spring, so I dug out a photograph of some May coreopsis. As brown as the vegetation is this time of year, I thought it might be nice for those of us who enjoy more vibrant colors to be reminded of what will be soon.

There are hundreds of Northern Pintails feeding in a marsh in southern Delaware this winter. I don’t think I have ever seen so many in one place before. I keep photographing them because every day I see them it may be the last, if they move on to another spot. This is from this morning.
