More rain

 Note the rain on the pond.

The rain was coming down and the fog was rising.

Looks like fall

 It is Oct 01 and looks and feels like fall - cool an raining

The ancient rail bridge into the misty fog of the past.

Deers

 This Doe and Fawn stopped on the path and looked around for a couple minutes before Grenville was off like a shot toward them.  They finally decided it might be time to move on.

 

As I continued on, I was thinking that the Doe was not going to make it to Thanksgiving.    When I looked to my left this Doe was standing looking at us from about 15 ft away.  Another that will not see Thanksgiving.

The local mall pond

 The Cormorant enjoying the pond.

Then the neighborhood goes bad.

 A Red Tail Hawk look in for lunch.  It just amazes me the way she turns her completely around.   Reminds of a movie scene involving split pea soup and a young girl.

The Monarchs were flying around like they were preping for the long flight south.  Earlier in the year the would flutter around, but today they would flutter a bit then just float on the wind.

First day of Fall

It is the 1st day of Fall so ... A fall foliage pic.  The foliage has just started to change more so down here in the valley at the end of the lake.

Fort Hill

 A new chair has been added.  Not the normal New York State style.  Very cool!

 This map shows where we are at Fort Hill.  Also located are the 5 local Seneca Indian villages.
