Howdee all,
Sunday ~ Jeff and I went for a hike up Lantern Hill with Sicksta Tink and her hubby Joe.
The colors weren't as vibrant as last years hike.
I don’t know if we are just a bit too early or its just not going to be as colorful as last year.
Its getting chilly here in Connecticut and soon we will head south..
But, until then…lets go for a walk…
Lantern Hill
Sicksta found two sleeping black birds…
Black Vultures~just waking from a morning nap.
Where we hung out for a bit ..taking in the scene…
We watched a chipmunk eat a mushroom..
I was hoping to find some edible mushrooms that were familiar to me..
I didn’t..
Tree base bursting with mushrooms…
Mushroom Idontknowus..butverycoolus
Most of the colorful leaves I found were small saplings.
Foxwoods Casino in the distance…
We hiked from the top of the hill down toward the pond ..
Pond reflecting fall’s color…
I loved this color combination
The woods around the pond were golden
A lovey Autumn hike…
Super Autumnal colors!! What a great hike :)
ReplyDeleteHi Dawn..nice hike report. Fall colors on LI are the dullest I have ever seen ..it's not your imagination..
ReplyDeleteYes, a very nice fall hike with plenty of colors. Notsurus of your mushroom either.
ReplyDeleteWhere south are you heading this winter?
Very nice photos of colour and landscape, Dawn.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lovely walk!
ReplyDeleteLove birds or black vultures? Either way, they are eerily beautiful! Thanks for sharing your photography.
ReplyDeleteThanks friends for stopping by and commenting.
ReplyDeleteI Really Do appreciate it.
I will sound like a broken record to some..but here goes.
Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to your comments and respond to them.
It has been a difficult month to say the least. I didn't realize that I was all consumed and even though I had times when i could have commented and responded to comments I just couldn't find the strength to do it.
Now that Colin is well again and life is happy again..
I will try to catch up with all of you.
Thanks!
nice
