Taking it all in

I walked home from work today, eyes and ears wide open, consciously taking in as broad a view as possible, trying to see and hear everything around me.

The day was a bit unsettled.  It rained a little, a fall front was moving through.  The birds were very active.  I heard one singing that I didn't recognize.  A woodpecker hammered away in an oak tree, and there were always some birds in sight.

Each day the volume of falling leaves is increasing, and colors - reds, browns, and yellows - are beginning to spread through the tree canopies.
