“Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.“ John Muir Photo taken at Groton State Forest, Vermont, October 2008. Owl’s Head Trail.

The Great Blue Heron sits almost motionless, despite the raging falls. Almost unseen. Waiting. I sit waiting too, watching … these grand creatures of water and wind. Moments, hours pass. Mist from the falls graces my face. Great Blue fishes; I sit in awe and wonder from the old wooden footbridge. Flight, almost flight, colors dance against the backdrop of the water. Heron Dance. Image altered post processing, giving piece an oil painting effect. Below is the real, actual photo, prior to post processing and reduced to fit: /

Too quickly, the Great Blue Herons will begin their migration. Perhaps this particular juvenile will return and grace us with its presence next summer. My heart and soul rejoices with the breathtaking return of these birds each year. Autumn migration has begun … we are beginning to see other feathered friends on their long, arduous, journeys south. Photo taken on the North Branch of the Winooski River, Montpelier VT. September 16, 2008.

Photo taken in Vermont in a local forest area. June 10, 2009. The Pink Lady Slipper, or Moccasin Flower, is a wild, rare and endangered orchid that blooms in Spring. Usually the first week of June these can be found in certain locations in the wild. This photo was taken in a pine forest area in Vermont. “Take only pictures, leave only footprints” – (unknown to me at the moment whose statement that is, if anyone knows the direct source, please let me know). / / “Cypripedium acaule is a member of the orchid genus Cypripedium. Members of this genus are commonly referred to as lady’s slipper orchids. First described in 1700, Cypripedium acaule is commonly referred to as the Pink Lady’s Slipper.[2] The Pink Lady’s Slipper is the provincial flower of Prince Edward Island, Canada, and in Nova Scotia, Canada it is considered endangered and is protected by law. If the plant’s blossom does not cycle through, it will not regenerate; for this reason, it is recommended that the flower not be picked. An alba variety exists which has a white lip instead of a pink one.” This information was taken directly from “Cypripedium acaule” found in Wikipedia online. Canon DSLR

On the morn of the eve of our first overnight frost warning/advisory here in Central Vermont. Autumn is upon us. Vibrant colors of late summer flowers; inhaled by green leaves. Absorbed into a spectacular statewide array of changing color, light, season. A glorious time in the Green Mountain State …

Best Viewed Large. “Members of the genus Coprinus have been collectively known as the “inky caps” because of the curious character of autodeliquescence of their gills—in other words self-digestion to release their basidiospores. Most of these species have gills that are very thin and very close to one another, which does not allow for easy release of the spores. Moreover the elongated shape of mushroom does not allow for the spores to be shot off the basidia and get caught in air currents as in most other mushrooms. Coprinus species “compensate” for this by a sequential maturation of the spores from the bottom of the gill towards the top. After the spores have matured and been released, the gill tissue digests itself and begins to curl up, allowing easy release of the basidiospores above. In other words, the digestion opens up the fruiting body so that spores from further up the gills become exposed to the air and a clear path of spore release. The self-digestion continues until the entire fruiting body has turned to black ink. In the olden days this ink was actually used for writing. The self-digestion is also a way of releasing the spores over a longer period of time, and allowing the release of spores from very closely spaced narrow gills borne inside a longitudinally tall pileus.” Information found at: http://botit.botany.wisc.edu/toms_fungi/may2004.html

It’s early May, the rains have settled in. Tulips are beginning to bloom; almost bursting forth fully in their grand array of colors. Morning rains transitioned slowly into brief interludes of sunshine. Expecting Spring. Canon xti/macro lens

In Memory of Grace Paley / December 11, 1922 – August 22, 2007 September by Grace Paley Then the flowers became very wild / because it was early September / and they had nothing to lose / they tossed their colors every / which way over the garden wall / splattering the lawn shoving their / wild orange red rain-disheveled faces / into my window without shame by Grace Paley, Begin Again: Collected Poems (p. 70), 2001. I had the great privilege and opportunity to meet Grace Paley briefly in 2005. May her spirit live on as a September wildflower, her life brilliant as the Sun. Grace Paley at the Power of the Word Writing Conference, Plainfield VT 2005 / image by Emily Bandru
