December 31st and January 1st we spent hiking in Shenandoah National Park and later the day drove to Blackwater Wildlife Refuge in Maryland.
The woods in Shenandoah are a bit frustrating right now, full of bare and windswept trees, maybe a bit mystical.
Bare trees in Shenandoah.

Dark Hollow Falls.


On the trail.



And this is it: Happy New Year!

And on the next day: Blackwater.
Sunset at Blackwater.

Thousands of Canada Geese gather there in the winter.


Swamp land.

Bald Eagle and Canada Geese.
