Autumn photo recap
Autumn photo recap
by Ross Baringer
In the fall marsh marigolds draw butterflies into the
swamps of the Pontchartrain Basin.
The red-shouldered blackbirds, who build the most intricate
nests in the spring, spend the cooler autumn months gathering in noisy
gangs sometimes hundreds of birds strong.
The ever-present barred owls take advantage of the receding
underbrush as it leaves their prey fewer places to hide.
