Gone

Where did they all go?  A downy woodpecker came for suet.  There was some flitting in the trees that I couldn't identify. And that was it for songbirds.  The sky was brilliant blue and the temperature was seasonable, but the wind was gusty. 

A great blue heron perched on the dock bench.  Mallards and geese were all I saw on the creek.  A few turtles basked on the lake.  Toward evening an egret and some cormorants flew over. 

Leaves came down at a great rate.  The hickory lost all its leaves almost overnight.  It was golden last week and now nothing but twigs remained.
