This Year's Harvest

My favorite season is fast approaching.  Every fall is different, but there always seems to be a morning when I can feel the change.  The air has just a bit more bite, summer's colorful birds no longer visit the feeder, and blankets seem just a bit more cozy before starting the day.

This week I made an exciting discovery - there are bats roosting under the eaves over my patio deck!  There have certainly been enough pesky insects this summer to feed a whole colony of bats.  My favorite night fliers may need to move on to hibernation roosts once winter hits, but for now they are most welcome to stick around.
