A photo a week challenge: gold

A quiet mid day scene at a park in Calgary, Canada. Autumn has set in and has turned the leaves golden yellow.  Park goers are enjoying every bit of sunshine before the cold, Calgary winter arrives.

Park scavenger

At the same park, critters are busy scavenging and preparing for the winter. This is my first time to see the darker colored variety of squirrel. I have always seen the brown colored squirrels, which are abundant in number in the south, in parks and, more recently, in developing neighborhoods farther north where I live.

I enjoyed the time that I was in Calgary. I’m happy that I have family in a place that is far away from home.
