The great thing was the wonderful weather - lovely light.
With lots of humidity the mornings begin with lots of dew.
I liked how the morning sun played on the drops of dew.
The cottonwoods are still bright yellow.
As we worked, we had lots of bird company including a Chestnut-backed Chickadee.
Lots of Juncos too.
The sweetgums provide a pop of color.
Hawthorn berries - I'm disappointed that the Cedar Waxwings have not mobbed this bush.
Most of the big leaf maples are leaf-free.
Winter plants will be mostly brown and at rest.
The other morning I went down to the Big Woodpile and several logs had been tossed to the ground. Raccoons possibly, but the logs were large and heavy so I'm thinking its the work of a bear. I scatter sunflowers on the top ledge of the woodpile each morning for the sparrows and chipmunks. I expect the bear could smell the seeds the chipmunks have stashed and had a look-see.
