Teardrops On The Water Lily ...

“I must have flowers, always, & always.”

   ~ Claude Monet

    ~ 1840 ~ 1926

 ~ One of the most famous Western painters of all time, founder of Impressionist painting, creator of the iconic Water Lilies series & a symbol of French painting

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.
