Fall reflections in Durand Lake

On our way back from the big lake today, we followed the trail along the east side of Durand Lake, stopping to take in one spectacular mirrored view after another. We are enjoying the flip side of our “cooler by the lake” summer. Despite being about as far north as we can be in Western New York, our temperatures are moderated by the still relatively warm lake. Our autumn high lasts longer.

You’ve heard of the manosphere. This is the deerosphere. Look at this guy, all beefed up for hunting season. How does this graceful animal transform itself like this each fall? That rack wasn’t even there a few months ago. His neck wasn’t that thick, and he wasn’t that big.
