Views From the Pond September/October 2024

September and October were simply stunning here. We left the bad flooding from August behind and entered a drought phase- where it barely rained for two months. While the rain would have been welcome, the views were out of this world and I noticed the leaves stayed on the trees a little longer than usual. 

Lots of green in September, but the leaves were beginning their transformation. Sit back and enjoy watching fall unfold! 


September 2024






Trees were starting to change!


Little roses!


The visiting deer with their fall coats- they
definitely blend in much more!


No water in the book, but the woods are changing for sure!



October 2024


The heron visited almost daily in September and October. 
One day I hope to get take off or landing!


Lots of pine needles- I wish I  was able to have smell-o-vision.






Love seeing all the colors reflected in the pond!








So many golden hues!




Love the pop of red!


Not a drop in the brook!





Ended October with so many beautiful shades of fall!


Fall came and brought me so much joy. Some slightly cooler nights, but we were lucky to have mostly comfortable temperatures! Looking back it's nice to see the pond was still pretty full- though the edges showed we were in a drought. As November came, the drought got worse, before it started to improve. Fall is settling in more and more, and the cooler weather is here. Still enjoy sitting on my porch and soaking in the views- I just bundle a bit more now. 

Thanks for stopping by and visiting!

  1. I'm glad you had such a joyful fall. I loved your pics, especially the one of the deer. I saw one when walking the woods last week. Happy Thanksgiving!

  2. How very, very beautiful. I hope your drought breaks - as I hope ours does. The weather boffins are predicting rain this week and I do hope they are not lying like pigs in mud.

  6. It’s amazing how nature transforms, even in a drought, and your descriptions of the changing leaves and visiting deer really bring the scene to life.

    I can almost picture those golden hues and the serene moments by the water. Enjoying tea while soaking in the beauty.
