Trip Reports

August 23 Upper Platte

Published on 8/23/2012

Tracie, Pam, and Jocelyn agree Harold has started a good thing -- getting out at the crack of dawn. Lovely light, cool, wildlife, perhaps mist ... and the rest of the day still available for other things!

 

                                               Tracie and Harold in just a hint of mist

 

                                                      Harold and Pam in their Wee Lassies

 

                                                      Harold and I both captured this touch of fall

 

                                                       Green heron stayed put watching us

 

                                 An eagle wondered what we were doing in his territory so early

 

 

        New to me, Pam knew this interloper was Amaranth; the yellow flowers are Jewel Weed

 

Excellent brunch at Tootie's, Tracie's brother's restaurant just a a bit south of Interlochen Corners.
