Borrowing the line in the movie "Forrest Gump," it appears fair to say, Brightwood Park is "like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are going to get." Today when I walked in the meadow area, underneath the mulberry tree, snow transformed the color of some of the roots to bright red. The color change was seen last year, too, only around this time.
A few geese came to check out the pond. They had no problem walking or skating on floating ice, and did not mind falling into the water when the ice was broken by their weight. They were also able to climb to ice plates from the water. The flat pieces of floating ice and their reflections glowed under the morning sun. This was my first time capturing the pretty scene. I took a few photos of the same old objects, the wood ear colonies by the uphill trail passing the two pond junction, with a new finding of an elephant face. Comments are closed.
