Snowy sundown

Beaver Meadows Conservation Area near Bloomfield, Ontario is a waterfowl marshland sanctuary surrounded by a rich, mixed hardwood forest including maple, beech, oak, hickory, birch, hemlock and white pine. This forest community is rare and endangered in Prince Edward County in contrast to the ubiquitous thin soil scrub land of cedar and prickly ash.
