I thought that I would miss the sun this morning. It turns out that I liked the somber light just as well and it made no difference to birds and especially to squirrels who were out making the most of the daylight long before I made my entrance. Maybe it was the brisk air (I could have used my mittens!) that prompted them to get to work. The canopy overhead was alive with their rustling and chatter and it didn't pay to wander inattentively as one never knows when detritus will fall from above in their wake. I guess I get their urgency. My next two weekends are booked. That is, other than soccer games... I have a standing engagement with the most fleeting of seasons.
