Snowscape

25 Feb 2019 9 17 749
Early in the series of winter storms we've been getting all this month. Scripps Wildlife area, Washoe Valley, Nevada. This area closes to the publc on the 15th of February to protect nesting birds, primarily waterfowl. It contains wetlands (at least at the present high water level!) representing the northern extension of Washoe Lake. Yes, the snow in the foreground has been sculpted by the wind!
