The squirrels in the forest we sure making a racket this day and for good reason as this Pine Marten was on the prowl.
Big Skies
Late fall, no snow but skies as big as they can be.
Along the trail
Along the trail from earlier this fall.
Reflecting Time
When a few weeks ago feels like a lifetime.
Today like yesterday but not at all.
Time?
Quiet
Exuding quiet and cutting through the noise a Dark-eyed Junco sits backlight as the sun starts to warm the day.
Quiet, yes, we like quiet.
Doe a Deer
Boy do they grow up fast.
With just a hint of those youthful spots left behind this curious youngster looks us over as sit and watch on a fall morning not so long ago.
Not So Long Ago
A beautiful early November sunset on a local pond. Not so long ago but far away. The the leaves are all down and now the colors in the sky have changed into their winter shades.
Well Hello There
A late fall surprise. A bit of green still hanging on where warm water emptied into much colder pond. Where there is a will there is a way.
The long view
Between the clouds, the wind and even a little snow, sunlight adds a bit of contrast to it all.
Red-naped Sapsucker
It was one of those days days where you can hear the pecking from afar. A noise from high atop the trees peaking your curiosity as to who is up there. A Downy, a Hairy?
On this afternoon it was an unexpected visitor a handsome Red-naped Sapsucker. While not extremely uncommon they are a species we only see a few times a year which made all that neck-craning and staring into the sun all the more worthwhile.
