It unfolded differently each fall, but another big cold front was bringing snow to that valley Tuesday and Wednesday and soon the elk would be kicking the snow aside to get to their breakfast. We'd been out in that strong cold wind and driven the curves on ice. Winter was coming soon.
We're getting tinges of winter here, too, and I see it in the behavior of our local birds and animals. I like your transitional design from one season to the next here.
