Autumn musings ....

Although writing this post on a gorgeous sunny Sunday morning, Autumn is definitely upon us.

Not only through the change of colour in the garden but also by the greater presence of all living creatures.

For example this silent ones .... 

And those who make a little more noise ....

But what really made my heart beat faster, the return of this one ....

And obviously the opportunity to have this on the menu surely has something to do with it ....

This little chiffchaff, so very quick and therefore almost impossible to photograph, is the most frequent visitor of all ....

Last Friday my husband and I went for a lovely lunch and a walk in the woods afterwards.

The road to it was already so worth while as I love this typical dutch view ....

At our lunch location we were surrounded by sheep of which this one came to greet us personally ....

While the rest of them, so it seems, was very busy with a 'group hug' ....

After our lunch we went to the National Park Utrechtse Heuvelrug where we took a stroll under magnificent weather conditions ....

And we were impressed by the variety of size and colour of all mushrooms ....

But slightly disappointed though, because the one I wanted to photograph for such a while now we did not see, the fairytale Agaric . 

But still there was so much to enjoy in a wood where we were almost alone, with only the sound of silence .... 

I think you can imagine how happy and surprised I was about our discovery when we were already on our way to the car.

Just one, but so very beautiful in all its enchanting glory ....

Just can't beat those days, especially when it ends with this wonderful sunset as nature's finishing touch ....

Have a lovely Autumn, happy new week!
