Gorgeous Autumn Day

As we often do on weekends, we went for a ramble this afternoon.  The weather was fine - sunny, and very warm for October. We wandered through the colour changing trees, and investigated the pond. We found several frogs, and at least two gorgeous garter snakes. We climbed the hill and talked to bird watchers, and were gifted with the sight of a golden eagle being chased by a sharp shinned hawk as they circled above our heads.  Truly magnificent against the clear blue sky.  We took some photos and ran the dog, and we all came home happy. 

Trying for a  group photo - we found a place with better lighting later. 
One of the best things about being a six year old boy is searching for frogs.

One of the best things about being a frog is camouflage.


Even Mommy and Daddy get their picture taken, but the perspective makes him look very large and me look very small - neither of which is very true!
