Fall jaunts
Hiking in autumn can be extra special for more reasons than the splashes of fall colours . Yes, jaunts in parks and woods at this time of year also tend to: provide softer light for photography; present good views of wildlife as animals scurry about to stash away food for winter; involve slightly cooler, crisp air; and, be free of biting insects. If you're lucky, you may also find rare migratory sightings or experience the jaunt with someone special. AWESOME!
