First Frost of Winter 2014 -2015

Wow, August 20th and last night was the first frost!!
All signs are pointing to an early fall: the geese are flying, the sandyhill cranes are also flying, the fireweed flower has reached the top of the stalk and the bison are getting frisky.

However trumping all this was the wonderful display of northern lights last night. They were AMAZING. The colours weren't great (mostly white to light green with just a little pink) but the patterns, speed at which it moved and the abundance were excellent.
I have to learn how to take photos of the northern lights and then I can post some photos.
