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.

Ripe for the picking
Ripe and bright-red these berries look ready for picking. Birds where are you?
Magpie
Getting eye to eye with a local magpie who was hanging out on picnic table waiting for lunch to arrive. Unfortunately picnic season is over. However I am fairly confident the ever resourceful magpie will find a bite to eat somewhere.
180
Just when you think you are sneaking up nicely to get a good close up this hawk takes notice with a 180 degree turn on the head. I wonder what it would be like to have eyes in the back of your heads. Maxwell wildlife refuge, Maxwell NM.
Letting Loose
Almost like a drip from a leaky faucet this plant was sowing seeds slow and one at a time on a windless afternoon. One let loose and another follows. A wonderful display of flow in slow motion.
Half and Half
A palette of an indian summer in a nearby woodland on a very warm mid-October day. These are the types of scenes that I find easy to see but hard to photograph. More of a painting in the mind.
Sweet Finch
A sweet female house finch hanging around looking for the bird feeders which we have yet to put out in an attempt to keep the squirrels out of the remaining tomatoes in the garden. Our first frost is a bit overdue this fall.
just before the sunset
The last of the Autumn plants glowing in a sunset that is getting earlier and earlier every day. Clear Creek Greenbelt, Wheat Ridge, CO.
Golden Grasslands
Empty spaces and great big skies did the trick for a bit of nature therapy over the weekend. And we all need space https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xe8_aka_qlw
Tansitions
Sometimes abrupt and sometimes gradual, change is something we can count on, and it sure is good to have something we can count on.
