It seems like we have always photographed Western Meadowlarks in spring and early summer but never in autumn so seeing a few hanging out on fence posts one afternoon singing away was a treat especially in their fall plumage.

Before sunset
Older than I and far much wiser this old spruce hunkers down for another evening.
Home on the range
A White tailed Doe making her way through the golden fall grasses. She does indeed look at home on the range.
Wet
I think there is a reason this forest is so green.
Down and to the right
Sometimes words add little.
In the Aspens
A little flycatcher, a willow or perhaps a yellow or least, the exact type we are unable to determine sits quietly in the Aspens on a cloudy fall day in SW Colorado. If you are skilled at ID’ing these guys feel free to let us know what exact species you think it is.
Like air
This little dragonfly seemed as small and ethereal as the air in which they flew. I am not sure the exact species of Dragonfly but this one was one of the smallest I have seen this year. Perhaps a juvenile?
They were hovering about then occasionally landing on the fall grasses out in a field where we take a walk. This one had what looked to be eggs attached to their body. Do Dragonflies or Damselflies do that?
Barely as long as a few grains on the grass.
Certitude
While we have skated by this fall with warmer and drier weather something about this morning brought a certain feeling that our luck is about to run out.
Milk Thistle Seed
October is the time when Milk Weed releases it’s seeds and boy how I love looking at these. So many variations on a theme each unique in some wonderful way.
A dash of color
With a snow storm moving in beautiful colors pop from the rocks and trees near Lizard Head Pass, Colorado.
