  Autumn in the swamp - on a sunny afternoon! The morning was cold and smothered with fog, but the sun quickly melted it away.
The swamp floor is dry, until the winter rains fill up the local ecosystem, so I can explore among the moss and lichen-covered branches, vainly attempting to dodge the spider webs. But the random shafts of sunlight highlighting a spot of green draw me on . . .
Even the cedar trees give a nod to fall by dropping some of their leaves, which turn yellow then brown. Those spiders are here, too!
