{Tim and Donovan}
The anticipatory breeze ~ fading light ~ crickets joining in with the lapping of waves alongside the canoe. Fire crackling ~ a handful of black raspberries found by the showers ~ a quilt at lake's edge. Swimming in the rain-chilled water, brown and blue and green. Sunset and twilight, the bats coming out in the dozens to swoop over the surface of the saffron-striped lake, sounding like the riffling of book pages. (If you like bats, as I do, look here to watch their ballet from my canoe.)

Your photos are gorgeous as usual. As for bats, I like them from afar, but when I woke up with one on me and had to get rabies shots I decided "afar" was as close as I want to get (of course, now I can play with them all I want, but still, the memories)!

your photos are most awe-inspiring!
Oh, Erin, that would have been interesting! I know rabies shots are the real deal. But now, as you say, you're all set for close encounters. :)
Thanks, Alfie! :)
oh so nice! :)
