MM Autumn road trip

 Click image to enlarge!





This was one of those days when the weather had no idea of what it was supposed to be. 
I had been to the grocery store and did not want to go home. So I drove out of town to check some areas I had not been for a while. It is a nice road to travel. And I have one place I always stop and check. It is a marsh and in normal years you need rubber boots to go there. This summer it has been dry but this day it was wet, obviously. But I managed  with my boots.  :) 

Passing a hill I noticed the landscape with dark clouds and sunshine. Had to stop. There was noise above my head. A group of Graylag goose was travelling. Preparing for migration south. 

The mushroom, cauliflower fungus, is one om my favorites. I just wish it was not that hard to clean. 

Most of the trees will soon be bare.

  2. The light in your photos is wonderful. When I am running errands, I am inclined to go straight home. How lucky we are that you took a detour. Sometimes our instincts tell us the right thing to do! Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday!

  6. One of the great sounds in all of nature is that of a flock of geese calling to each other overhead. It never ceases to be wonderful and epitomizes the rawness of nature.

  8. Great shot of the water droplets. Geese can be a real nuisance here in town. Oh how I miss my country living.
    Interesting cauliflower fungus. Is it edible?

    1. Yes, I agree about the geese. :) And the fungi is tasty but a pain to clean form moss and needles.

  10. How amazing to see that flock of geese! We haven't seen big flocks of birds migrating here yet but it should be any time. Love the droplets of water...such a nice photo and great mosaics as always. Enjoy your week!

  11. These days I never want to go out when I’m home, but once I do go out, even on a routine errand, then I don’t want to go home! You sure knew a great place to go after your routine errand! Lovely pictures . The only wild mushroom I’ve ever cooked and eaten is the chanterelle . I don’t know any of the others well enough to dare . That one does look hard to handle.p, but must be delicious to be worth all that work!
