Huntley Meadows Park: In Black & White

Huntley Meadows Park is a 1,500 acre park in northern Virginia operated by the Fairfax County Parks Authority. It is mostly a wetlands, but also includes hardwood forests and meadows. In colonial times, it was part of a plantation owned by George Mason's family. Mason's grandson, Thomson, built a house overlooking the property in 1823. The house still stands, but is mothballed awaiting funds for restoration. It was a working farm through the early 1900s, then passed through several owners, including the military until 1970, when the Air Force offered it as surplus. President Gerald Ford, who lived in nearby Alexandria, designated it as a county park in 1975. Over 200 species of birds have been sighted in Huntley Meadows. This gallery contains black and white images; a few have been tinted in processing. For color images of the park, see "Huntley Meadows Park: In Color."

This makes me think of Chet Huntley, but he wasn't "all wet."
