Many fields have been harvested and corn stalks have been baled, but there are still some fields with standing corn yet. The yellow ears so critical to the farmer’s success and the constant worries of the year’s weather conditions will come to the end once the field is harvested, hopefully before the snow comes.

This fall it seems like the clouds have taken on a lot of unusual formations, probably since they haven’t delivered any needed rain, but instead they are wispy and thin.

The Herefords are wondering what I’m doing taking their picture and interrupting their grazing. Course the colored leaves caught my attention first and seeing the cattle were a bonus.

Despite the several hard freezes, there are still some flowers blooming which adds some color to another grey day outside.

It feels and looks more like a grey November day than October so I needed a bright, sunny October picture for today.

The bluebirds were gathering at the pond on a cool evening and this one was trying to catch the last rays of the setting sun on his back.

Ever since the movie Fields of Dreams came out, it is hard not to look at a corn field waiting for baseball players to come out from the field. And while the movie had the line “If you build it, he will come.”, in this case it is, “If you plant it, it will come.” And the ‘it’ was the combine on the far end that came in a few minutes making these rows vanish, like the baseball players vanishing in the field.
Vanishing Corn Field
When taking pictures of the fall crop harvest, sometimes there is a long wait for the combine to come back to the end of the field where I was and so the camera looks around for other interesting subjects like this close up shot of a grain truck and seeing the reflection in the gas cap.

Today has started off cloudy again so this might be the only sun I see on a Sunday.
‘Sun’day Bright Colors
The seagulls were enjoying a nice warm fall day on Little Long Lake and it was real peaceful watching them and to soak in the colors.
