Rain droplets on a water lily are all that remains of a summer shower that briefly eclipsed the sun on a beautiful early August afternoon at Johnson’s Pond & Wildlife Park, Schnecksville, North Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania.

Water lilies, plants in the genus Nymphaea, are aquatic blooms that grow in ponds and water gardens and are abundant on Johnson’s Pond.

  

This wildlife park provides an environment for bird watching, nature study and trails.

Kissed by the summer sun, the loveliness of the pink water lilies dances in the pond on a beautiful mid-July afternoon at Johnson’s Pond Wildlife Park, Schnecksville, North Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania.

A blue-tailed dragonfly can be seen alighting on the bloom at left and in the foreground on the pond.
