Day 279 - 6th October 2015 - Sunrise, Hermit Thrush and Yellow-Rumped Warbler

A nice morning - stars and moon are out with a few clouds rolling by.  Promises of another good day. Work today - things are looking better, only another week after this and I'm done my regular hours. Making headway with getting things done and cleaned up.
A lovely fine October Monday - still wearing sandals, hope this keeps up. I enjoy the cooler mornings and days that warm up this time of year. Everything is fresh and crisp. We've not built a fire on yet in the furnace although the house is a bit chilly in the evenings. In the spring and fall our house never seems to warm up a lot; I'm happy to throw a sweater on. Had a good day at work, mostly quiet - things accomplished.  Good walk in the morning, not a lot of birds around until I was near the end, then  a small flock of Chickadees, Palm Warblers and Yellow Rump Warblers appeared. Exercise class last night - a good workout, getting back in the groove of that too.

Sunrises over the lake in the fall are spectacular.

I love the soft hazy colors.

And then a burst of light.

Hermit Thrush - a few are still around.

There were several Palm Warblers - neither were in to posing for photos.









Enjoy your day!
