The colors have reached their peak and are spectacular. The reds are very deep and the yellows striking. This is a tree on Blue Jay Lane, the very! rural road into our river camp.
Can't remember if I posted this photo of the coyote walking up to the cabin. Many have seen a timber wolf around here , but I haven't this year. This 'guy' though, is very confident and roams around. On the day I took this photo I saw him walking up to the cabin, Skinny was tied right outside. I took the photo from the deck and then told him to 'shoo!'. He was unimpressed, but did wander back down onto the other trail and amble along.
On our daily walks we find many piles of berry filled scat, large and small. It's the chokecherries that they're devouring now and soon those will be gone, too. Unfortunately the dogs sometimes roll in the 'good' scents .
This is the first summer in 'forever' that I have not personally seen a bear. Last summer I saw ten (from a vehicle).
Road hunters are out at night, looking for partridge on our road. My land is posted but it doesn't keep them out so we keep watch around dusk as the dogs get very upset with nearby gun shots.
(as do I, so close to the dog pens).
