Hike at Nockamixon State Park, Sterner Mill Section
Yesterday afternoon, I went for a hike in the Sterner Mill section of Nockamixon State Park on the Quakertown side in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. It was a beautiful, warm, sunny day with temperatures in the fifties. But the trails were still snow covered though melting. My shoes got quite wet.

The beauty of nature never fails to amaze me. Was out for a walk yesterday as well. Cool yet sunny. Spring is definitely here.
Cute turtle rock.
That many-holed tree is amazing, Tim. Do you know what made those holes? Surely not a woodpecker??
And I love the turtle rock. Donica would like that. :)
Really nice series of pictures. I love the signs of life along the trail. Your turtle rock is cute and the holes in the trunk is so interesting. I didn't think woodpeckers made such big, deep holes.
The turtle rock's so cuuuute!!! We are having a lovely spell of breezy sunny weather down south too .....:)
Tim, I think you have a fungi fetish. :-)
As always, thanks for taking me for a walk that doesn't require my legs to move.
Thanks, leah. Nature has so much for us to enjoy if we only take the time to see and appreciate it.
Thanks, ginnie. No, I don't know what made those holes in the tree; but I thought it fascinating. I like the turtle rock, too. :)
Thanks, photowannabe. Glad you enjoyed the sights of my hike. :)
Thanks, moi. Isn't it fun what we can see in nature with our imagination! :)
Hi, murf. I think fungi are a fascinating aspect of life. Plus, in winter, one photographs what's available. I'm glad you enjoyed the walk; but I think you should take a real walk that requires you to move your legs. You'll feel better physically and psychologically.
Remember me my blogomate? I am back after the ban on blogspot has been lifted in my area.
That moss on the rock is awesome :)
LOL - that last one looks like my neighbour when she gardens:)
Tim, are you calling me fat and crazy? ;-) Do you love to eat mushrooms?
I like the turtle rock! :)
Thanks, fahd mirza. And it is great to hear from you again and that the ban has been lifted in your area. :)
Hi, choochoo! So I succeeded in making you laugh. Good! :)
Hi, murf. I think I'll let you decide. ;) And by the way, I often do enjoy eating mushrooms.
Thanks, mikaela. I thought that was a rather neat rock, too. :)
you still got snow? I'm jealous--we had warm temps and rain--it was pouring rain and 60 degrees at 6 AM today! Love the pics
Thanks, sage. Most of our snow is now gone, too. It just took a little time for the warm weather and rain to come our way. Plus most of that snow was actually a mixture of sleet and snow.
In the east part of France it is necessary to be careful when ctting wood because of bullets from the two last World wars...
We may find trees with hole too made by woodpeckers
these look like great parks! we have a turtle rock sitting in the middle of a nearby creek...someone even painted it green....
lovely photos!
Hi, cergie. It's a shame that one has to be careful cutting trees for such reasons; but I know that is reality in some parts of the world.
Thanks, bluemountainmama. They are great parks to hike in and enjoy. Glad you enjoyed my photos.
nice pictures, i love hiking, only in the summer time though.
