Beautiful sunshine and water reflections:
Bees buzzing around a few remaining flowers:
A Vermillion Flycatcher:
A beautiful coyote as he sauntered off in the distance:
A variety of floating ducks swimming to-and-fro around the pond:
With beautiful fall color reflections:
Multiple dragonfly sightings!
Another bird:
Beautiful fall and winter colors:
Duck wings flapping:
And in the end, even the ducks are ready for an afternoon nap:
"I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees. The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets. It has given me blessed release from care and worry and the troubled thinking of our modern day. It has been a return to the primitive and the peaceful. Whenever the pressure of our complex city life thins my blood and benumbs my brain, I seek relief in the trail; and when I hear the coyote wailing to the yellow dawn, my cares fall from me - I am happy."
