Spring on Long Island

The Peconic Estuary is very close to my house.  It is a small 44 acre parcel of land set aside to protect groundwater.  I love to hike with my boyfriend and dog in these woods.

Today I brought my camera.  I wanted to show how hard the fall and winter was for Long Island.  First Hurricane Sandy knocked down many trees, then the heavy snows snapped many branches or the tops right off the trees.  The forest shows it.

I can't wait for it to start greening up!  Spring please come!
