I awoke to a cheerful chorus of birdsong with tree sparrows, chickadees and others.

Listen and watch the cheerful Tree Sparrow busily hopping around the bushes -

As the sun rose the moon was still shining in the morning sky above the sunlight pine treetop, beautiful to see!

Heading off for our walk to the hilltop we noticed some leaves in the bush beginning to change color after our first frost.

Up on top of the hill we found some interesting clouds above the lake in the distance.

The fireweed, although the blossoms were pretty much finished, were putting on a pretty display with their fiery red leaves

Another sign of fall was the continuing flocks of geese heading South.

Although we did have a light frost there were still a few blooms around attracting the bees.

Something I don't see often was two different pollinators going after the same bloom. This time a bumble bee and a type of pollinator I'm not sure of what it is.

Back at home we found JJ sitting by head of the lane, welcoming us back.

One last interesting shot I got after nightfall was a shot of what I presume is planet Mars which is suppose to be quite bright right now.

It was showing as a large red star shining up above a spruce tree which gave me something to focus on as I zoomed in and got a pleasant surprise for it was showing some details on the surface of the Red planet
