The cycle of life and here it is fall time in the upper Midwest. The bright colors of fall on the trees has peaked
and the leaves are falling to the ground. I live by the lake and today is slightly warmer than it has been in the last several days so I have been taking some time to enjoy watching nature prepare for the winter.
Robins are everywhere around, heading south. Squirrels and chipmunks are busy gathering acorns. Geese are gathering in bigger flocks ready any day now to move to warmer water and grasses.
Listen, keep still, and observe.
The robins are singing cheery songs, maybe some kind of road trip song or should I say, air trip song.
You might see wild turkeys gathering together as well.
Winter is coming and it will appear that nature is asleep. But, perhaps only contemplating, resting and reflecting.
Then when the cycle is complete, once again I will sit on the porch and listen intently to nature's music.
