Early Morning Observations

My plan was to get a coffee at Angel's Cafe across the street and enjoy it at one of the picnic tables under the copper beeches. But the café does not open until 8am on Saturday and the tables were still damp from the days of rain we had this week. So instead I walked around the area.

I came across some mushrooms in a corner.

I soon noticed some bird activity in the young birch trees. Song sparrows, house sparrows and a junco were busy in this corner.

There were lots of branches down from the storm. 

Now that the leaves are falling, you can see a couple nests in the maple.
