Two American Coots enjoying an afternoon in the golden reflection of cattails gone brown for the season. We are still waiting for the Ducks to return and fill up the ponds but until the Ducks arrive the Coots have the place all to themselves. Fall can be a quiet time.
The borage in our yard bloomed early this summer and quickly went to seed. Lo and behold those seeds have grown and we have a second bunch blooming as fall marches on, and the bees couldn’t be happier.
Was the weekend real or a dream. Friday as warm and sunny whereas Saturday was cool and rainy and Sunday a mixture of the two. Is it really Monday already? What a wonderful time of year.

Even with the flowers long gone the hollyhocks that remain standing are still beautiful to look at.
The aster in fall is my favorite. The flower petals are just drying up and the colors are faded but present. Each flower seems to be directly pointing to the cycle that is life.
Laying low in the fall grass and letting the Autumn light do its magic. A bit of nature therapy after another week of work. Happy weekend.
An American Robin Enjoying the fall light in a forest of mixed colors. We have tons of Robing in our area in the spring and early summer and as the young fledge they are absent until Autumn begins. Glad to see they have returned.

…But it sure felt like summer yesterday. Hiking up above timberline in shorts and a t-shirt and sweating under a summer-like sun at the end of September? Squaretop Mountain, Guanella Pass, CO,
