I was going to send you a message, but I think that might have been one of the times you were out of town. I've been having problems posting on peoples blog posts, too.

There is a fish hatchery further upstream from this location that offers quite a bit of educational material on the fish in our area. <br />We've had beautiful, warm fall weather. It's been very enjoyable. <br />Sue Linkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07190179382458092983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-724778346902655607.post-66869256435347396252016-10-12T14:00:21.052-07:002016-10-12T14:00:21.052-07:00A very nice end to your summer, Sue.

Lovely day here, but the heat is back again.

There are several areas on the river that allow public access for fishing, and certain private areas where you have to pay to park and fish there.Sue Linkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07190179382458092983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-724778346902655607.post-15705920293003416522016-09-21T07:04:21.924-07:002016-09-21T07:04:21.924-07:00I like the picture of the fish!

My perennial beds took a beating, too, and I'm even ashamed to photograph them. They really need a lot of work and it seems like it was too hot this year to work outside. It sounds like you have a yard that's very attractive to wildlife. That's awesome! We found out we had fox under our shed this year so we set up our trail cam behind it and got some great photos of the kits. I think I need a solar powered fountain. What a great idea!<br />You were so lucky to find those cocoons. The Luna Moth is one of the most beautiful moths I've ever seen. I saw one at work several years ago (it had been hanging on the window screen all morning). I went home on my lunch time to get my camera and when I got back he was gone. Would have loved to photograph it. <br />I love the decorated birdhouse gourds. Several years ago we had some in our backyard. We had a Great-crested Flycatcher nest in one of them and they returned to use them for several years. Have fun this winter with your gourds!

It was so dry here in the Finger Lakes that my perennial gardens took a beating, but are surviving. I was cleaning up in my front flower bed and found a nest of baby bunnies under my Tradescania. We are watching Mom coming and going via our deer cam set up nearby. Really neat! We also hatched a Cecropria Moth early this summer and I'm waiting impatiently to hatch a Luna Moth cocoon we found in our driveway. We're still loaded up with birds at our feeders--mostly sparrows, nuthatches, chickadees and a pair of cardinals. We made a solar powered bubbly fountain for them this year and they really love it. Also have an awesome crop of birdhouse gourds and luffa sponges growing for some crafty stuff this winter. Miss seeing you--keep up the inspiring blogs!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070248035324778949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-724778346902655607.post-43009952076522303632016-09-19T16:56:48.677-07:002016-09-19T16:56:48.677-07:00Thanks so much for your comments.

But we're having record high temperatures here. Ted actually went swimming in Lake Ontario yesterday and the water is still pretty warm for this time of year. <br />Yes, I'm hoping we'll have a pretty mild winter like we did last year. Thanks so much for your lovely comments.
