Autumn Feathered Friends

The bees are busy in the garden gathering pollen

from the tansy...

I was so happy to see the hummingbird was still

here, I know that soon she will be flying south

and I will miss her.

Am delighted to see the juvenile night heron is

also still here...

Another favorite that feels so magical to me
is watching the egrets fly just before sunset
to the island where
all the shore birds spend the night.

We still have some warmish days

before the cold weather settles in and these

feathered friends will fly to warmer climates til next year.

My photos, drawings and memories will carry me
through til they return next spring.
