This and That March 2012

Well winter finally arrived in March this year here in the Foothills of California. Spring is in the air as snow finally started falling. 


Sure signs of spring, tulips and nest building


Late season snow had temperatures hovering at 32 degrees. Drops on pine needles flashed between ice and water, this one was caught in the transition


Early morning snow fall


Park in bloom


Same blooms catching rain drops in a spring storm




Winter residents moving on


Prickly in any season



South Yuba River after a week of rain. Same spot as Yuba Revisited in earlier post.


Seasonal waterfalls start to run clear after heavy rain


New growth
