I sit here tonight in southern Vermont at the Nordic Hills Lodge with a slight chill in the air. You can hear the fall crickets outside. When we checked in we heard that there might be a late night visitor, a black bear. I would love to see that, but of course from a very safe distance!
All along our trip this weekend we are seeing that the leaves are starting to turn color. The Inn keeper says that the color change is a little early this year with peak color being mid to late Sept. and early October. So, we will have to plan our weekend excursions accordingly and will hopefully be able to capture the northern color at full peak.
In the next few days, I will be posting an Osprey sitting on it's nest, so be sure to come back often to see those pics.
Stay tuned....................
This Osprey was squawking as we approached it's nest. It is probably a young bird, since it was there by itself. The bird was at the same place the foliage pictures were taken, Ausable Marsh Wildlife Management Area which is near Plattsburgh, NY at the upper end of Lake Champlain.
