Flowers in the Autumn

Although, the calendar notes it is indeed autumn, we are still being treated to some days in the 80s. I love the colors of this season but usually focus on the colors of the leaves.

The other day I took the opportunity to stroll our property barefooted as I love feeling of the earth beneath my feet and I may not get the opportunity again this year.barefoot

Although, leaves have already fallen, the land was bustling with activity and I was delighted by what I found. The pollinators were quite busy and at some moments their hums were incredibly loud, almost meditative.

I went over to our old Pitch Pine where we have a robust hive and most of the bees were not home. Not surprising ~ it was a beautiful day in the 80s. I was out too.
