It has been a beautiful Autumn.
The colorful part lasted weeks, yay!
We had lots of sunshine to inspire adventures in the mountains and forests.
Snow has come and gone many times.
Though the snow is magical and beautiful,
it is nice when autumn returns, as winter is a long season here in NW Montana.
The other day I drove out of the aged golden grasses of autumn
into the snow clad forest of the mountains.
Autumn's wanders revealed one of last summers
hummingbird nest.
Seems one of my little birds friends
was as curious about it as I was.
Wishing you a lovely autumn
as we lean towards winter.

ReplyDeleteThank you Hilly!
DeleteSeeing snow and autumn colours together is one of my favourite things. Snow clad forest is gorgeous. I love the last photo so much, two of you observing the nest together. Did he speak to you afterwards?

Gosh, Blogger no longer lets me know I have comments, so just seeing this. I love that last photo too. So much fun. Lovely autumn into winter to you.
DeleteYour autumn dazzles. And ahhh. That chickadee. Your snow almost makes me want some. Almost! Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteIt is my pleasure to dazzle you! All that snow melted away, but today we have near 3" of new white fluff.
DeleteSo much seasonal beauty, I love the autumn sumacs... they put on quite a show here in the east, too - as they do every year. Thank you for sharing the beauty around and within you.
ReplyDeleteI can see why you thought sumac, these are Mountain ash, AKA rowan in some parts. they grow wild here or are planted.
DeleteThat last shot is enchanting.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo of the tall trees and snow. It looks like a magazine photo.....wonderful!

Beautiful blog
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos of autumn! I love your little bird friend investigating the hummer's nest. I've never seen one in person. My landscape looks more like your snowy mountain photos.
