Autumn Images

Allow me to turn the captions of the following photos into prose…

Seed pods open, releasing future generations of precious milkweed

While trees announce the season with their stunning autumn attire

Twisted grasses offer sustenance to migrating birds

As a Red-shouldered hawk balances on the most humble of branches

Goldenrod – still serving nectar into October – shows signs of closing shop

And a tiny House Wren remains, but will soon head south

The Great Blue Heron that hunts our ponds in late afternoons, still, will soon be only a memory

Until Spring unfolds next year.
