It was unusual, but there was a phoebe in the front yard, which seems late in the year. Here is an old screenshot of it coming to land on the trailcam. They are lovely little birds. Ours nested twice and produced 8 chicks.

Things are winding up. Leaves are falling. We have 8 happy fishies. I cannot grab a photo of them all at the same time! One was stubborn, and escaped capture until the pond settled and I could see it.
The water fountain has been scrubbed and cleaned. Much debris was in the mechanism. It's good to dry and be wrapped for winter.
It was a lovely day to be working outside.
The sunset was lovely.
Fall, bring it on!
Plane spotting!

Pretty fish. Fall and winter sunsets are one of the best parts of this season.
