Autumn Bridge
Though this was taken in October, things look about the same right now. No snow here, no winter weather. Almost “warm” with a touch of March/April in the air. Strange times. I wonder if this bridge leads to a snow covered world. I hope so.
Sunless Rainbow?
Though it was completely cloud covered on this November day, somehow a sliver of rainbow appeared in the sky! If you look closely around 10-11 o’clock, you can see it too.
All a daze
These summer midges were a welcome distraction from the heat. I walked right into the swarm.
Door to the forest
Not all who wander are lost….but in this case I was lost for over two hours in an unfamiliar woods. It was the best thing that ever happened. Discovered some amazing landscapes and even more brilliant trees. Felt a calling to wander ever closer to this particular forest’s edge.

Resting on the leaves…
This snowy leopard seems to be smiling. The sun was warm for her that day. If only I could share her comfort and cuddle up right by her side! 🙂
Queen’s Throne
Sadly we’re not seeing any of this in Winter 2015-16. Here’s to the epic winter of ’14-15. That was something wonderful.
Juvenile Bald Eagle
It might be hard to make out this bird’s markings from this photo. This juvenile bald eagle followed us around the marsh. We could hear it calling from deep in the trees until it finally made its presence known, spooking a great blue heron off the water, as it flew at almost ground level and rose up over us.
Had a hard time catching it with the camera but finally held it steady long enough to get a half decent shot. Gotta love how many of these birds are everywhere around here now. 10 years ago, I would not have believed I would see a bald eagle when stepping out my front door, or sitting in the Kmart parking lot, but I have done just that. They’re everywhere now. Hope their numbers keep growing!!!
