Snowy White Poplar Forest Kort

One common tree in the forests of Maryland is the tulip poplar tree - also known as the tulip tree, hickory poplar, yellow poplar, and many other names. In the winter, when we're lucky enough to get snow, you can find them by the way the snow sticks to their distinctive rugged bark. Here is the first of a series of photos of a snowy poplar forest on a sunny winter day. This picture is also featured as the widescreen wallpaper "Snowy Poplar Forest I" on MLeWallpapers.com.
