It is hard to believe that we have reached the penultimate month of this wonderful photo challenge. November reveals stark changes from the lush, vibrant summer and early fall posts. Trees are denuded of their foliage, verdant colors have transitioned to golds and browns, and the wild life is sparse as birds fly south and mammals start preparing for their winter hibernation. Yet, beauty still abounds. I hope you enjoy this month’s entry in the challenge. I hope, too, that you get a sense of the magic of this place. Enjoy.

Your photography is stunning. Beautiful reflections, exquisite birdlife and lovely painterly hues of browns throughout. Love the heron and the trees and the reeds. This is a truly beautiful place.
Thank you! To be honest, it is impossible to take a bad photo at this truly beautiful place. I am glad you enjoyed the photography. 🙂
wonderful nature photos. every one of them!
Thank you, klara. This is truly a special place for me and it has been sheer joy to visit this place every month thoughout the year. Immersing myself in this place throughout the changing seasons has certainly deepened my appreciation for nature and our place in it. Thanks for stopping by AND for taking time to leave a comment. Glad you enjoyed the visit.
It’s always lively in the reservation. 😀
😀 Yes indeed.
I’ve visited your monthly challenge late – however November seems to be a glorious month. thanks for sharing – and trust you are keeping well. 🙂
Forgive me for taking so long to reply. Yes, we are keeping well…and busy. Thanks for stopping by. The North Chagrin Reservation is a very special place for me and I have thoroughly enjoyed photographing it through the seasons. One more month (Dec) and then I will take on a new challenge, but NCR will continue to be my R&R place. I hope that you, too, are well. Best to you for a great 2016.
