Watercress


Watercress (Nasturtium officinale) at Prophetstown State Park.  Watercress stays green throughout the winter.  Here at a creek just past the outflow of the fishing pond.  The watercress is in clear spring water flowing into the creek.  All photos taken Dec. 26, 2014.


A view of the spring, coming out of the base of a big sugar maple tree to the right side of the picture.
