Birds in the Fall

Wynette. In answering the question about whether we prefer spring or fall on the Camino, I forgot to talk about the birds, or lack of them in the fall. In particular I miss the storks. We see their huge nests, but nary a stork. I also miss the cuckoo calls. I guess the storks and cuckoos are far south of here by now. (Hey, Christy or Vicki, can you confirm?)

Still loving the fall here. The pervasive green in spring was beautiful but we are seeing so many colors now, including green, yellow, red, and gold. And blue sky now that the rain has gone away. Surprising wild flowers, too. We are starting to be in the mountains.
