It’s 35 degrees but bright and sunny so I decided to check out the wildlife at Bulow Creek SP and Betty Steflik Memorial Preserve. I wasn’t disappointed but I wish I brought along my 600 mm lens.

Thankfully, Sunday, I had 3 strong male neighbors how shoveled me out. Right after which the township plows cleared the street dumping a huge pile of snow on my driveway apron. Monday I put down what snow melt I had then drove back and forth through the snow piled up on my driveway apron so I’m able to get in and out of my driveway. It’s averaging 19 degrees and ALL the snow melt products are sold out with replenishment dates unknown. And another storm is expected this weekend. Boo Hoo 👎

truly beautiful photos. I like to walk down the boardwalk at Betty Steflik park, but have a broken foot at the moment so I can’t. Thanks for the pictures.
