Woodstock, VA
On some maps, this creek is called Hollow Run, but I have heard it called Spring Hollow Run and that is what the US Geological Survey calls it. I find the name intriguing because there are three geographic features in the name: Spring (the source), hollow (a small valley), and run (a creek).
Its a nice name! And I think that if Mallards were rare, people would travel miles to see them! Hope all is well, Stewart M - Melbourne

ReplyDeleteCute ducks and a pretty scene. Take care, have a great day!
ReplyDeleteMallards on a stream are as tranquil a scene as one might imagine. Were I an artist I would take up my brush immediately.
ReplyDelete...just ducky!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great picturesque site!
ReplyDeleteA run is a term not used here in that context, though I'm familiar with it through history, ie Bull Run.
ReplyDeleteThe reason I defined the terms run and hollow is because they are not widely used in this context.
DeleteA lovely, lovely mood in your post.
