I hope you all don't mind me indulging one last Hood shot for this series. The last of the light on the mountain slipped away soon after this and it was time to head home.

Zürich, Sihlpromenade

With night coming early,

And dawn coming late,

And ice in the bucket

And frost by the gate.

The fires burn

And the kettles sing,

And earth sinks to rest

Until next spring."

- Clyde Watson

Trout Lake in Northern Vilas County Wisconsin is a large 4000 plus acre lake and is the last lake to freeze over and the last open water I will see till May. Two days later this shot is only a beautiful memory because now the lake is frozen over.

We might have been meant for each other

To be or not to be, let our hearts discover

I have a feelin', it's a feelin' I'm concealin', I don't know why

It's just a mental, incidental, sentimental, alibi

But I adore you, so strong for you

Why go on stallin', I'm fallin', love is callin', why be shy?

Crimson Sunbirds are tiny, only 11cm long. They have medium-length thin down-curved bills and brush-tipped tubular tongues, both adaptations to their nectar feeding.

Happy Thursday everyone !!!...

Ideals are like stars: you will not succeed in touching them with your hands,

but like the seafaring man on the ocean desert of waters,

you choose them as your guides, and following them, you reach your destiny.

There is just something about a reflection in the Autumn. You get two breathtaking colorful shots in the same picture. Mirror Lake is in Northern Vilas county in Northern Wisconsin.
