Red Tailed on a grey day

A colorful gateway just seemed to be asking me to follow a lesser traveled path into the forest. Did I listen..yes I did, and had some fun along the way. Along Clear Creek, Denver, CO.

The last of the Autumn plants glowing in a sunset that is getting earlier and earlier every day. Clear Creek Greenbelt, Wheat Ridge, CO.
