Yet more fall folliage

 Not much foliage left so we will move to a new subject soon.  But for now MORE foliage.
Grenville is interested in something ... probably a falling leaf.

Waning colour

 I just love the purple colour that some plants down in the swamp turn.
Aspens are about the only colour left.

Milkweed in the frost

 The frost is just melting off the milkweed.  Not the first frost, but near the first "hard" frost of the season

The ponds at the park in the fog

 Fog that lingered all day.
Actually an all day mist.

Fall in the Hills

 The Turkey Vulture flys with the colors in the backdrop
 It was cool this morning but this Clouded Sulfur was still going
I love this shot and have taken it over the years, but a Weeping Willow is playing havoc with the view.

Mallards

A couple Mallards enjoy this pond where they have been for a while.  Will they stay the winter?

Geese

These Geese are going to be late for the trip south because of the young family.  Or they might choose to stay the winter as many do.

Trip to South Central NY

 This Walking Stick just showed up on my foot.  It was small by Stick standards.
 Ichabod Crane pasted by this morning, but I'm sure he will return Halloween night
 What fog?
The hill are aglow with peak colour down here at least.

Bridge to fall

 This a brand new bridge between the Auburn trail and a side trail off the Lehigh Trail.  It so new they have not yet put in the steps.
The sun has been shining and the temperature goes from frost to 80° F .

First frost

 The frost melted off the cobweb leaving some pearls
 The frost was still there when we finally got there.  Ok, those are Grenville's words.

Buckeye and Buck

The first Buckeye I have photographed.  Probably the first I've seen
This buck and doe crossed in front of me and the guy behind was probably wondering why the sudden stop and what am I taking a picture of.
