More Strange Happenings At The Vermilon River.

I think this is going to be a strange post, not because of the photos, but because of Blogger/Google. I've had to enter the post through a microsoft browser, not Google Chrome as it will not accept the photos on the blog site using chrome. The photos are also not loading correctly, and I'm having to do them twice. So I'll move forward with captions and cope as best as possible.

 At the right the River through a rock face looking north. You'll see the trees starting to change. The Vermilon Forest is a gold forest in the fall, unlike southern forests which have more maple and oak, and are red and gold. Our red comes from a few maples, the pin cherry trees, and the blueberry plants which cover the the clearings.

The same, but I couldn't make up my mind which I liked.

Red blueberry leaves.

The whole forest is alive in cleared areas with wild sunflowers. They're smaller then the domestic ones, and grow taller.

I found a little trail which allowed me to look in on all these geese in a River wetland. They're all in moult. Imagine the warm down vests. If you look closely you can see the feathers in the water.
