The song in my heart plays a soft native flute as I tread gently beneath the river birch. It’s only a few notes that repeat but it sets a mood as I walk. I looked closely at the salmon pink bark that curls out from the trunk. I look for any hidden wildlife that might seek shelter from the sun within the shadows but this time nothing moves except for the emerald green solitary bees that are clustered in the sweet Goldenrod to my left. Green and Gold are the color of the day and it seems that the small birch is in tune with the season. The sun is a little lower in the sky and each day loses a few minutes. The green leaf of this birch is already preparing for the grand finale of 2021 as it slowly trades its green for gold. In just a few weeks the Appalachian Mountains will begin to bid the sun farewell with a display to rival the finest sunsets. The turning of the first leaf is a mark on the natural calendar. Soon after the forest will sleep and dream of a glorious spring.
Good night friends and be blessed throughout your days.

For those who have been following me on Facebook and know of the struggle content providers have to get circulation from big tech I’ve been recommending for people to adopt MeWe as a social media platform. One of the problems I’ve run into on MeWe is that people don’t know how to navigate the platform. So to help with that I’ve created a permanent page on my website as a basic Basic Beginner’s Guide To MeWe I’ve tried to anticipate all basic questions there and You can bookmark the page to have as a reference and if you have any questions or suggestions don’t hesitate to contact me. I do still have a day job and I help admin several pages on both platforms so replies might be a little slow but I will answer you.
We also have the Lloyd’s Lens Photography Discussion Group on MeWe that is set up as a fully functional community. There you’ll not only be able to see and connect with me but you can also make your own posts and interact with each other.

Thank you so very much ♥️.
I generally have music running through my head 24/7 and sometimes it feels like it’s more of a part of me than it a thought.
The fall colors here last from late September to late October.
