A beautiful day today for a long walk along the river.

Long Island is in full autumn color and the temperatures are relatively warm.

The rain yesterday did remove many leaves from some of the earlier autumn leaves but most trees were full and color-intense.

Visit to Ricketts Glenn, Pennsylvania

This past weekend I went to Ricketts Glenn State Park in Pennsylvania to see some of the autumn colors.
This park has beautiful waterfalls and trails for hiking.
I went with my nature photography club, NWPLI (Nature & Wildlife Photographers of Long Island).
It's a great group of people who have a love of nature in common.
Many of the members are award winning photographers and it is my pleasure to be a member of this group.
There are many areas on Long Island to photograph wildlife but this weekend we were on a hunt for color. For Long Island, that will come in about two weeks. Last year, it was October 28th when I took my aerial flight to catch the colors images from the air.

The deer walk freely on Fire Island. This buck was looking for some food and found this shrub with berries. Quite impressive for an area so close to New York City.....
