Spending time watching the clouds and light change on at Iron Spring Creek. Autumn grass and sky were on display and ever changing just as the weather was that day.
While looking south the clouds filled then left the sky to various degree in just 15 minutes time.
Then turning to look north the sky was gray and filled with soft clouds…
…but within 15 minutes a bit of blue filled the sky and color filled the landscape at Iron Spring Creek on this early October day.
With the silence only punctuated by a infrequent call of a pair of Grey Jays we walked through the grasses and lodgepole pines on a fall day with the sun veiled by cloud yet still somewhat present.
Listening for a deer or perhaps a bear the forest remained silent. Even the tall dry grasses stood still as statues.
Just when you thought it could not get any quieter a Grey Jay would call one of their various calls but were never seen, only heard. as we walk through the forest and meadows that day.
Footnote: The Grey Jays is now Officially called the Canada Jay but Grey Jay just felt appropriate on this slightly grey and very quiet fall afternoon.

A day in the forest.
Flowers flowering.
A gentle breeze.
High up in the hills the flowers have all flowered and transition fills the air. What a wonderful time.
A bit of summers bounty made monochrome. From Arnica to Camus to Cows Parsnip and more. Enjoy.
Paddling along on a warm summers day. Too late for the morning light yet too early for sunset.
The sun high overhead as Cormorants rest…
a tree reflects…
the Heron ponders the day.
Paddling along with the sun high overhead we gaze into the distance and enjoy summers light on a beautiful summer day.
Looking out into the West Elk WIlderness in central Colorado.
In a dark forest with just enough light a delicate Columbine dances.
A misty morning sunrise over a leafless forest. Nice way to start the day.
