BACK TO ENJOYING OUR FALL COLOUR WHICH WON'T LAST MUCH LONGER.

The first seven photos were taken while walking one morning.  The last nine were taken on an ATV ride in the hills.  The three in the middle were taken on a drive above Vaseux Lake.  We ventured up into the snow yesterday for photos of the beautiful Western Larch trees.  I have at least one more post before we get to the larches though.

Looking across the valley to See Ya Later vineyard.

Ponderosa Pine.

I wonder who laid those eggs on the Sumac.

Several Western Bluebirds and a Song Sparrow.

Can you see the face in the rock?

Blue Elderberries among the fall colour.

It's amazing what you see when the leaves come off.  I've been very close to this numerous times over the year and didn't know it was there.

Out on the ATV trails.

Well the beaver effectively closed the lower road!

That tree is well over a foot across.  It will take a big chainsaw to open the road again.
