The Wind and The Water

Strong Northerly winds are bringing our lovely Autumn weather to an end. I hear Winter on their backside.
Late yesterday afternoon I stood spellbound watching as the wind pushed the water into design after design.

A little later, another gorgeous sunset. (With camera on auto mode.)

Changing the setting to night landscape made the colors more true to what my eyes were registering.

And then there was the heron in silhouette.

Standing on the goose nest platform.

 Waiting patiently?

Or was she watching the sunset, too?
