Two things that tell me fall is just around the corner is the long-tailed weasels turning white and the sandhill cranes gathering on the open harvested fields and summer pastures. Here a weasel hunts for rodents by sneaking down their holes. If you look closely, you can still see a little of it summer coloring on its forehead.
Here a pair of sandhill cranes fly over me on Henrys Lake Flat last Friday as I went up to deliver fishing flies to several businesses. I stopped to observe several hundred of them on the flat.
Wishing you all the best in the wilds wherever you care to visit them.
