October is a great time to be on the island. The nature watching is fantastic, and here are some photos and video taken this month around the island. Whenever I get asked if we have fall colors, I respond with an enthusiastic yes– it’s just not the colors you are used to. Sweetgrass is a soft pink, camphorweed and goldenrod a bright yellow, monarchs and gulf fritillaries bright orange, the salicornia in the marsh is bright magenta, the marsh turns golden and the water a deeper blue. Happy Fall!

Lovely!
Thanks Judy- beautiful!
Thanks, Judy! Can’t wait to get back tomorrow.
Boy you do the island justice. Sigh!
You had such great shots – the buck!!! Were you a mile and a half away with a big honking zoom? Thanks so much for the video, the music. Fantastic.
that was a work of art….. Thank you
Lovely, especially after a visit from Sandy and now onto 7 days of rain. Jessie
