It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon
men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that
emanates from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews
a weary spirit.
- Robert Louis Stevenson

the other day I saw a huge shadow fly over my back yard... then I spotted a Blue Heron standing over my pond!! He flew up into the tree for me to get the shot...
then I had to stomp through the frozen 6" of snow and net the pond... once they know there is free food, they come back!!
This Eastern bluebird points the way toward happiness in the New Year. It was outside our window blind sitting in the sun on a bare Maple tree branch. Different species of birds seem to come to the yard at different times and I got lucky lately with bluebirds.
The light was fading, it started to rain and I had a short window of opportunity to catch autumn in my local park
Not sure what kind of Maple tree these are on, but I think they are a Japanese Maple Tree. They were all red and so lovely and colourful.
Long Island is having such beautiful weather... blue skies, no humidity and mild temps...
I'd be a happy camper if all year was like this!!
This Tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) gives me an over the shoulder look after enjoying some safflower seeds at the feeder. It as well as other birds take one seed at a time, fly to the Maple tree's branches, place the seed between its toes, and peck to open the husk. It is great fun to watch them attack the seeds.
Wandiligong is a town in north-eastern Victoria in the alpine region around 330 kilometres from Melbourne. Established in the 1850s as part of the Victorian Gold Rush, Wandiligong became a hub for many gold miners, including a large Chinese community. At its peak, the town was home to over two thousand inhabitants and boasted shops, churches, a public library, halls and even an hotel. Much has changed since those heady days of the gold rush, and the picturesque town nestled in a valley and built around the Morses Creek, is now a sleepy little town full of picturesque houses which are often let to visitors to the area. The whole town is registered with the National Trust of Australia for its historic landscape and buildings of historic value.
Photographing Japanese maple trees with peak fall color has become an annual ceremony for me. I absolutely love how these amazing trees look. Their branches and shapes seem purely magical. More autumn photos to come!

My wife and I witnessed this 'discussion' between two male Downy woodpeckers (Dryobates pubescens), outside our window this morning. I have just over 5 minutes of their posturing and noise although we didn't hear much from inside. I don't know if this was territorial or something else. The limbs of the almost bare maple tree afforded a busy view and not as sharp as I would like. I certainly need to clean the windows.

This little fella was puffed up trying to keep warm. It was so cold outside!
Happy autumnal equinox! Today is the first day of fall. Maple trees on Cascade Mountain, Utah County, Utah.
