Many of the leaves that turn have already dropped, but there was a bit of color in the tree line at the back of the marsh.

A Great Blue Heron looks rather small tucked into the grasses at the side of this canal.

This is the marsh side of the dike where the water flows with the tide at Donnelley WMA. There wasn’t much bird activity on this gloomy day.

On the other side of the dike the water level is controlled by management using the trunks. There were a few Alligators floating in the pond.

The decorative fences in the older sections of Charleston’s Magnolia Cemetery fascinate me and the bloom azaleas really help them stand out.

An island, or maybe just a tree line, where most of the palm trees are dead or dying. The morning we were there started out foggy and the Black Vultures were slow to get into the air. A few started flapping their wings, perhaps to warm up. At least one Roseate Spoonbill silhouette was visible and a Wood Stork flew by. It was quite spectacular.
