I love autumn, and look forward to this one, since I did not even see a colored leaf last year, after herniating a lumbar disc. Here is one from central Vermont from some time ago.

Beautiful, Michael. I can certainly sympathize with your back condition. Mine has really taken a toll on my photography.

Great photograph Michael. I, too, having been having problems with my spine for decades. Just been in to have steroid injections around my first spinal fusion and in a nearve in my crotch and thigh. Hopefully, I will be able to get around a bit more again. Take care xo

Thanks for the quick reply, Michael. Much appreciated.
Hal: The absence of a perch out front makes it a nest for an Eastern Bluebird. They like that type.

Very lovely autumnal scene, Michael. Looks like an artificial (man-made) bird nest on the tree-trunk. l wonder for what bird. Hope your present autumn is a colourful one too. Enjoy it in good health this time.

I love the beautiful warm colors in this fine capture. I hope you have recovered well. I am having a lot of pain with sciatica and the pain is so bad at times.
