We were gone all day Saturday, and I didn't take any pictures outside, so I'll post some from last Thursday and Friday. They are all on my morning walk on the Creek trail. I wore a bright green sweatshirt, and didn't see any hunters.
This first shot is of the Tundra Swans. I heard their kwooo, kwooo calling way before I saw them. This picture has been cropped, so you can see just how very high they fly. They were headed Southeast to their winter grounds along the Atlantic shores of Virginia and the Carolina's. It had been raining earlier that morning, and the water droplets hung from all the branches.

As I walked the sun came up, and turned the color of the trees orange against the dark sky over Lake Erie. The lake is probably 25 miles away to the West of us.

Then the clouds moved in and that beautiful bright orange color was gone.

This is the end of the trail, and here is the Beaver dam. It survived the high water we had last week.

I hope everyone has a very pleasant rest of the week-end.
