Quaking Aspen ~ Winter, Okanogan Highlands
This image, "Quaking Aspen ~ Winter, Okanogan Highlands" will be the lead image for a new Summit Post Album entitled WINTER IN THE OKANOGAN HIGHLANDS. The dense groves of aspens in our area provide scant winter shelter for the snow-shoe hare, bobcat, and a few hearty birds which winter over. Occasionally in the evening I'll see a solitary owl silhouetted on the uppermost branches.
