| Canyon and Tree, near Alberta Falls, Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado © Doug Hickok All Rights Reserved The shaded canyon wall of Glacial Creek provides a colorful backdrop for a lone conifer tree. This small canyon is just downstream from Alberta Falls (9400 feet elevation) in Rocky Mountain National Park. The canyon trail delights one's senses. Echos of roaring cascades reverberate among the rocks. The warbling song of a Ruby Crowned Kinglet sparkles through the air with its trilling melodies, and sun rays warm pine and fir needles, liberating their alpine aromas. Have a great weekend! |

ReplyDeleteLast week, I went to see the Summer Science Exhibition organised by the Royal Society.
ReplyDeleteI learnt how to identify lichens there.
White lichens indicate good air quality; yellow lichens for bad air quality.
I guess the air quality in this national park is good. :)
nice capture with great tones on your picture
