I LOVE the Fall Season!!

Fall is by far my FAVORITE season. I love everything about it; the colors the smells the sounds. Everything is just so bright and crisp after the hazy days of Summer. There is nothing better than taking a walk on a cool autumn day. The air is fresher the sky is bluer, even the greens seem to pop against the bright oranges, yellows and reds. I love the sound the leaves make when they crunch under my feet or rustle in the breeze. Call me crazy but I even love the smell of the dried leaves and browning grass. I love watching the birds fly south in flocks and enjoy watch them search through the leaves looking for worms. It's also fun to watch the squirrels and bunnies scrounging around preparing for winter. Everything is just so alive and clear and time seems to slow down for a while. To me it is the most magical season of all.

A Fly?

Is this just an ordinary fly? I don't recall EVER seing that sort of stinger on an ordinary fly and it didn't seem as big as the horse flies I remember as a child. Then again I was smaller myself then so who knows.
