A Hike along the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek near Perkasie
Wednesday a week ago, I went for a hike along the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek near Perkasie, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. It was a cold but mostly sunny day. My fingers sometimes almost froze. :) But these were some of the sights of the hike.
A moss and fungi covered portion of a trunk hanging over the creek
Deep blue skies, puffy white clouds
Yellow sprouts just out of the soil
I see a bird's face and scarecrow What do you see?
A contrast of rough and smooth Notice the tree reflections in the smooth background
White fungi in a dark woods
Do you see the reflections in the creek of blue skies and white clouds?
Nice shots Tim. I love how you capture your walks in the woods. Good to hear from you again. Its been a while since I have been to your blog too. Isn't your 1 year anniversary coming up soon? This year has gone pretty fast. Wishing you a blessed Easter. Sue
Great shots, I am so envious that you can go hiking along a creek and see actual running water and not ice and snow! We here in S Ontario are still snowbound and likely to stay that way for a few weeks yet. We have SO MUCH SNOW! I loke the little shoots springing up through the dead leaves. Makes me think that Spring might actually arrive here in Canada one day!
The fragmented tree, branch/roots, was a bit scary looking to me. too bad I don’t see the scare crow, it may have frightened away the feeling I had. take care & my best to your other half.
On that post, for that time, I prefer the pictures which are not details. They are so neat : the black tree silhouette against the blue sky and the two pictures of the rivers. These three photos make me dream. They tell me : "come and have a hike" !
My main blog: Ramblings generally focuses on telling a story via photography and words. These stories generally center around family, nature, and church although sometimes just about life in general. I also have a blog entitled Fingerprints. I post less frequently in Fingerprints. It serves as a catch all of anything that does not go in my Ramblings blog including memes, quizzes, and reports on books and movies.
The road awaits
Time doesn't
The road beckons
Time steps forward
Will we move
In step with time?
Will we step forward
Shaping our time?
Will we take time
To see the present?
Will we explore the past
And understand our heritage?
Will we laugh?
Will we wonder?
Will we touch?
Will we feel?
Time flies on
We have choices
Shall we go fast?
Shall we go slow?
We shall go forward
But we will choose the pace
We may dance with all our heart
Or bathe ourselves in a setting sun

You will now get out on hikes more and more, Tim, I'm sure of it. It's gonna happen!
Well, I wish I could hop over your neck of the woods and take a hike. As always, your hike photos are amazing. I can almost imagine that I'm there!
Thanks, photowannabe. Glad you enjoyed my walk in the woods. Our wedding anniversary comes up in September.
Thanks, ex-shammickite. I like to share my hiking joys with others. And Spring is coming if ever too slow. :)
Thanks, paige. I like to play with my imagination and see what I and others can see. There'll be more of these in future posts.
Thanks, murf! I suppose one could get splinters from that wood but only if one was reckless. ;)
Thanks, cergie. I, too, like photos that make me dream and invite me on journeys both real and of the mind.
Thanks, ginnie. I'm working at it. ;)
