Connecticut River from Dawson Conservation Area North Lane, Hadley Photo by Mandana Marsh |
As a month that famously comes “in like a lion,” and goes “out like a lamb,” it’s always challenging to pick a single photo to match the mood of the month. For this year and the beginning of March, at least, we seem to have made the right choice. This photo of the Connecticut River – taken by Mandana Marsh from Dawson Conservation Area on North Lane, Hadley – is the featured photo for March in the 2023 Head in the Clouds Amherst wall calendar. As Mandana notes, “The sweeping views of the river, fields and sky from the levee along North Lane in Hadley never disappoints. This winter scene fits a favorite quote of mine: ‘If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.’ ”
Winter turns to spring this month, so expect an entirely different view four weeks from now. As Mark Twain (and many others) have observed, “If you don’t like the weather in New England, wait a few minutes.”
