A Hint of Autumn

It's still Summer, and I'm sure there's more hot weather coming, but since Friday we've been experiencing a hint of the coming Fall - much cooler and drier air. And what a pleasure it is to walk around in it. Dykeman Park certainly perked up, although the insects were a bit slow moving after the cool overnight and morning. Here are some scenes from this morning's walk.

An Appalachian Brown along the Dykeman Walking Trail
A drowsy Bumblebee on some Goldenrod along the trail
The old railroad trestle along the trail
A marsh boardwalk in the Dykeman Spring wetland
A Red-spotted Purple in the wetland
A view of the north duck pond
A bench along the path around the north duck pond
The view north from the top of the meadow
