Night Skies, Chickens, and The Coming Rain

I remain uncertain where the month of September has gone, but the end of summer is here.  The days are shorter, the dawn chorus of birdsong has faded and the leaves are turning colour and beginning to carpet the ground.  Each morning opens with a cool, bright and misty start.  But before I load up the wood burner, shifting where I spend time in the house, I find myself reflecting on the beauty of this recent summer.  When our niece, a photographer, was here in August she spent many hours capturing the night sky, the birds, and the changing weather.  What follows are some of Charlotte’s photos.

The sun setting over the ridge.

This looks like a Ghost Busters sky!

Dizzy and my head is spinning.

Misty morning

Yummy wet morning grass.

I’m so pretty, oh so pretty…

Let me give that some thought.

Are you talking to me?

Like a bird on a fence.

Keeping watch and feeling the rain.

Here comes the rain.

I’m outta here.

Rain on the reeds.

Mushroom in the grass.

The end of the summer flowers.

Rain drops on seed heads.
