Early October

 Milkweed seeds escaping on silky parachutes

When I see milkweed in my my gardens, I dig it out. BUT when I see it in a natural setting I can't resist photographing it.

Early October

This week we have experienced mixed weather: fog, rain and sun. The temperature has been rather nice throughout. Kids (and adults) still enjoy beach combing even though the leaves are changing, berries are ripening and seeds are drying. It has been a lovely fall so far.

Egret Taking Off

 Up,

This egret was quietly foraging for food when it heard a loud truck not too far away.

Up,

And away!

It took off so suddenly that my focus is a little off...but you get the idea.
