The fairies danced in the woods today . . . . well, I guess they're really some kind of insects which were milling around in sunbeams. They didn't look anything at all like fairies until I saw this photo . . . so I'm thinking they had put a spell on me so I didn't recognize them . . . but you can't fool a camera!!
Anyway, it was a pretty fall day, the poplar trees in my neighbor's driveway are so tall that the tops were still in the sunshine late in the afternoon.
While deep in the swamp, an old nurse log continues it's slow decline back to the earth, covered with mosses and ferns.
