The Aspen tress are doing their thing and a day spent soaking it up is an experience as good as gold.
Happy fall to all.

Sun, Trees and River
The setting sun behind burnt trees shimmering silver on the Norris river in Yellowstone National Park.

Jumping into the weekend with Phidippus audax the Bold Jumping Spider.

In a quiet forest
A quiet walk in a quiet forest where old trees have been kissed by fire and young trees grow. Sun behind the clouds yet peeking between the trees.
In a quiet forest life goes on.
Hey Chippy!
Hey Chip, Chipmunk that is.
What you doing up high in that tree?
Although we see Chipmunks in trees frequently it is always seems surprising and a good surprise at that.
Seeing time
Colors and textures telling time.
Time measured on a bigger scale.
Time without time.
The Boys Club
I could be mistaken but along the trail and just down the hill was a sign that read “Boys Only” and perhaps that was so as a Mule Deer Buck and young Bighorn Ram hung out together under the comfort of large shade tree on a warm fall afternoon. This is the first time we have encountered both a Bighorn Sheep and Mule Deer together through the viewfinder. An unusual and interesting encounter.
Lichen it
Even the rocks are dressed in the latest fall fashions.
More Purple
Purple wildflowers in may shades filled the meadows all summer long. From the Bergamot or Bee Balm: Monarda fistulosa L. to the purple flowers in grass filled meadows.
The Lupine in the alpine meadows offer a bit of pollen to the bees.
And the Rocky Mountain Columbine. 
All purple of a different shade and a wonderful way to remember a summer filled with flowers.
So just a bit more purple before all thought of summer fades.
Happy weekend to all.
Like fingers
A wonderful and unusual fungus growing like fingers from the earth along the path of old tree decomposing lying just below the earths surface.
There were several cluster each with a wonderful beauty that made us ponder life myriad forms. Each form with a place and each important to the whole.
The diversity of life is natures greatest gift.
