Adieu to Fall

 
A windy, rainy day is bringing down many leaves and sweet treasures from 
the boughs above.  This lovely little nest with spotted eggs still inside 
was laying on the ground this morning.
 
 
 
As the leaves disappear only to leave a bleak and barren landscape behind, I can't help but view this little nest and eggs as a departing gift of nature.  A sweet and precious reminder that spring will come again in due time.

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year and it seems to have gone by fast again this year too. I agree nature is so wonderful and pretty and now I will look forward to the rest of Winter and the coming of Spring after it.

Cindy,

It's a miracle that the tiny eggs and nest are still intact, perhaps meant for you to find and nurture. Lovely photos.
