The trees are nearly naked after the relentless wind of the past weekend. The few leaves still clinging to tired branches have turned from orange to burnt sienna and I still find them beautiful.
This is my fifth year of waiting for the school bus on weekday mornings. I don't always take my camera along, but when I do I'm often rewarded with some kind of treasure...
Sometimes little girls...
Sometimes a little girl grown bigger...
Sometimes a feathered friend...
And sometimes falling leaves.
I really love that first photo!..Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of bird!? I don't know that one!
That is a golden crowned kinglet. I have a cousin who helps me identify birds I don't recognize. He was a little stunned, likely from hitting the window, but he recovered and flew away before the cats discovered him.

That wee bird is so cute♥️
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way sometimes Martha...
You have that "relentless" wind, too, eh??
We were at the cottage today...brrr
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers!
Linda :o)
Isn't he just beautiful? A tiny treasure for sure.
DeleteI was surprised at how naked the trees looked after this weekend.
I should have taken a ride to my own lake this morning, but I stayed home instead. Silly me. Oh well, I'll be out tomorrow and Wednesday.
