It’s cool and breezy…

Windows are open…

Soup is simmering…

Feels like Fall!

Welcome and Happy September!

Soup’s On! I’m still not hurrying Summer… but I sure enjoy the cooler temperatures.

These cooler temps made for a delightful day at a nearby winery. Sipping wine by the grapes and smelling their sweet fragrance was heavenly. The grapes are ready to be harvested.

***We picked a bunch and they were sweet!***

***We live in an area where grapes grow quite nicely. We have become a sought after area for wine.***

Surprisingly there are 42,000 acres of vineyards along Lake Erie in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. And many more acres that spread into Canada. The local wineries are making fabulous wine.

***This is the entrance to Cask 307 Winery in Madison, Ohio.***

From Wine to Ducks

It’s that time of year when the lake starts hosting many migratory ducks. This is one I have not seen before.

This weeks Creature Features

***Do we have a Hybrid Mallard here? …hybridization is quite common with Mallards. Looking for bird experts to let me know what the Black Duck is with the white breast.***

With Fall approaching we can hear the calls of the Canadian Geese as they fly in formation overhead. On the Lake we had hunters waiting for some to land on the lake.
