With two birds you can get crystal clear reception.  With three birds you can get top-secret transmissions from Yugoslavia.

A message from your local Temperance Union.

It is a family tradition to stand outside and wave white hankies or napkins as visitors drive out of sight.  This was our sendoff as we left Halcyon Farm after a lovely Thanksgiving stay.  So long!  Farewell!

As a child I was an indiscriminate berry-taster,

ignoring the perils of bitterness or poison,

determined to discover some new sweetness

even in the cold grey days of late November.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and I've only just swallowed my last bite of turkey.

Have you noticed the power (and beauty) in power lines?

day 328 of 365

Some trees.  Such show-offs.  When everyone else has politely dropped their leaves, they hold out so they can have the last word.

Happiness is when the wind blows the leaves into the neighbor's yard.  :)

A few hangers-on, showing off their brilliance.

I'd like a half-serving of moon, with a side order of treetops, please.

I'm featuring treetops over on a little light reading today.  Stop by!

A little late bloomer finally succumbs to the frosty weather.

Bokeh -- it's hard to describe and a little elusive.  I'm musing about it over on Mortal Muses today.  Stop by and share the beautiful blur.

day 317 of 365

We've had a week of wild wind.  The trees have been dancing against the sky.

Words are flowing out
like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass
they slip away across the universe.

November forecast:  Wind. Rain. Bare trees. Raw gray days. Cold dark nights. Hot tea. Steaming soup. Good books. Warm blankets.

The last of the yellow tomatoes, blown over by the blustery November wind.

Felt + scissors + needle + thread + beads + sequins = ornaments.

This is a real street in Harwich, just a few miles away from this street.

Here's another entry in my roof series.  This cupola reminded me of something out of a children's book or nursery rhyme -- maybe part of the "little crooked house" or the "house the Jack built."  It makes a nice perch for this seagull, who can see out to Lewis Bay from this lofty vantage point.

I'm not sure if this crow is eating or praying.  Or maybe doing some crow-yoga.  Downward crow pose?

These are the last of the fall flowers in the front yard.  They look like pink daisies but I think they're actually chrysanthemums.  We got our first hard frost last night, so they'll be dying back soon, too.

I'm musing on night over on Mortal Muses today.  Won't you join us?

These men were working atop the new water tower in Centerville.  Even though I was very far away and shooting with a telephoto lens, one of them seemed to pose for me.  Click on the photo to view it larger.

All fall down.

This photo is for my mother -- may she no longer worry.  xoxo
