European Starling (Sturnus vulgaris)

But in Adobe Lightroom Classic I noticed it wasn't just black. In the summer, the feathers carry a greenish iridescence that only shows itself at certain angles, a shimmer of oil-on-water colour hiding inside what looks, from a distance, like soot. In winter, the same bird trades that shimmer for dark […] -

Walk About
After two cold months indoors, a mild March morning was all it took to grab the camera and head out for my first walk in weeks. -

Little Nest Polypore (Trametes conchifer)

I think the best time of the day is the early Spring or Fall morning, between 7 AM and 8 AM. It's quiet and peaceful. I can hear the birds singing sweet songs, creating a peaceful ambience. When I go out for a pre-workday walk, the air is cool and refreshing. Not cold. The sun rises over the horizon and the sunlight filters through the branches of the budding trees magically casting shadow and golden rays of light in just the right places.

Natural freshwater stream?
The fallen leaves, twigs, and dead vegetation suggest the season could be either late fall.

Autumn Hill Preserve Trail Head
I had almost forgotten about the Autumn Hill Preserve Trail Head on Blue Spring Road. With the leaves trees almost all gone, it was more visible.

Blue Spring Road – December 2023
During my early morning walks in October, I started photographing my neighbourhood with the 6mm lens on my iPhone 11 Pro. When I have something worth sharing, I think I will. I may or may not add words.
These posts are scheduled posts which will be “published“ in December, adding colour to the blog during the drabber winter months.
