To celebrate #WildlifeWednesday I thought I would share a picture I took last December at the DDD Ranch in Kalispell MT. This is a Red Fox, not to uncommon for me to see in Pennsylvania, often darting through traffic or across country roads late in the evening. The snowy background makes a great setting for the red coat. This furry little creature was playful and animated all during his "photo shoot".

I got to spend a little couples time with my wife this weekend at one of our favorite locations, #Longwood Gardens. For a photographer it's nature in overdrive. The #Christmas display was still up but this was the first time this year we got to see it during the day. The Day Lilies were a welcome sight as the cold weather is finally creeping into the Northeast. #Nature #Flowers #Garden

This picture was taken in Glacier National Park in Montana during a recent visit in December of last year. You can download the high res picture here so that you can use it as your desktop background. Please share.

As the year draws closer to an end and the leaves fall the spiralling journey to the ground, November carries the promise of warm homes and loving families. Hopefully memories of good times are plentiful to share at your holiday gathering. Enjoy the cool mornings and lingering mild days before the hustle and bustle of December arrives.
