miscellaneous

it's fall!  happy fall, everyone!  such a lovely time of year.  the tips of leaves are noticeably changing from green to bright colors of reds, oranges, yellows.  the break in the summer heat has brought cool breezes. perfect porch sitting weather, watching the world of the farm and sipping tea.

a mama deer and her twin fawns call the farm home.  this morning i saw them walking over the dam.  the water of the lake was so calm that they were perfectly reflected. a breathtaking sight!

the berries on the bittersweet have begun to pop open.  yellow wrappings open to reveal bright red-orange berries.  as the leaves fall from the vines, the berries take center stage.  gorgeous!

pumpkins are everywhere!  people sure like pumpkins.  and why not?  pumpkins make people happy!  they are tasty fine as well!  

it won't be long until the corn across the road is harvested.  the land will, once again, be accessible to the deer and turkeys.  because of the stubble of the cornstalks and grain left behind, animals will be drawn to feed there.  looking forward to observing to all the animals coming to dine!
