Fall Hikes in the Woods

One great thing about building a house, is that in order to check out the progress, you have to get outdoors to do it.  And if you're building that house smack dab in the middle of some acreage, might as well take a hike around in the woods while you're out there.

Coyote scat all over this newly fallen old growth oak tree.

So many turkeys.

Blue Jay, doin' something mean, probably.

Human birds swooping overhead, too.

Sometimes the lil' guy just wants to go start his nap though.

One ok thing about December, is that pretty sunsets can go on all afternoon long.  Unfortunately they are over by 5pm though.

Tracks in the snow.  Need to get better at my identification, but I think this is just from a feral cat.

Cardinals really pop atop some snowy branches.
