Flyover at Predawn

I awoke early again. A trip to the bathroom, prayer and meditation time, a bowl of cereal, made a chai latte then headed for Arapaho Bend Natural Area. Yes, as some of you know I do have my routines. I am also blessed to have all these natural areas close to me. Arapaho Bend is about the farthest away at 8.5 miles. Takes about 16 minutes to drive there. This morning I discovered this slightly different perspective so you may see more images from this location. As I stood there soaking it all in a flock of about 21 geese flew over me from the west (I counted them). So, I waited until they were in the viewfinder before taking several images. Interesting how they noisily honked to let me know they were coming in over me. To me they add to the scene. Expecting another warm day here in Colorado. Hoping you have a great day!

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.

    The sound of geese often makes me think of fall. It’s early for that of course, and we’ve been experiencing cooler weather on this trip. I think I’m in for a rude awakening in a few days!

    Looking forward to the images from your newfound location!

      Yes, you two may have a rude awakening upon your return. Glad you’re enjoying the trip, though. Geese hang out here all year so I’m relatively used to them. I like this natural area except it’s close to the interstate which provides the unwanted noise pollution. Travel safely!
