  1. Thank you everyone. All the pictures are fantastic & I love them all. Thank you all.

  3. I never fail to stop by at Smalls Falls for a “visit” when in the area

    Jim Dwinal”s “seasonal lighting” of the “Falls” is really unique, very nice!

  4. Northern shrike – have never seen one. Thanks, Jim. Smalls Falls photo has a painting-like quality. Don, thanks for keeping our Spring hopes alive with the snowdrops.

  5. The snow drop flowers was great a find with all the snow we still have in the area.
    Thanks Don for the photo.
