Tonight on the trail - My World Tuesday

I can't believe how bad the mosquitos were tonight but, that being said, it was still a great evening for a walk.

The angle of the light at 5:45pm was lovely.



This is the first time I've seen a turtle on this trail.



Leaves are starting turn.




Chicory.


A fleeting glimpse of a Great Blue Heron.



These pretty white blooms were a mystery to me but now I have it on pretty good authority that they are calico asters. Thanks Deborah!

    Gotta love that evening light, even if you have to share it with mosquitoes. I love that fleeting glimpse of the heron and your lovely flowers.

    What a beautiful walk, and I didn't mind the mosquitoes at all. Loved the turtle shot - he looks inquisitive.

    Your photographs are beautiful. The header photo reminds me of some places in Scotland.

    Hey cousin. More beautiful pictures. Love the first one...and the turtle. I think the flowers might be calico asters. I look forward to walking that trail with you some day.

    Wonderful relaxing photos. I'll bet you are going to have some fantastic fall photos for us. Glad you captured the heron. They are pretty quick around here.

    Tell Geoff I have heard of clocks in horse's stomachs and clocks in Buddha's stomachs, but I have never heard of a clock in a cat's stomach. Well, that photo of Gray is more of a clock in a cat's body. Just a head and a tail of a cat.
