Ah...nature!

I love Autumn. Bright, crisp days. Jacket weather.

And trips to the Reifel Bird Sanctuary, where I can 'do my Francis of Asisi thing' as Metro calls it ('tis tricky taking a picture of a chickadee in one's own hand, I'll have you know!)





The only absurd thing to note is the family name of Mr. George C. Reifel that christens this wonderful migratory bird sanctuary...a reminder of the canoes with hunters waiting out beyond the boundaries to shoot down some of the lovely snow geese that fly in every year at this time.
