Also, met this guy while I went out to photograph the sunset. I didn't want to freak him/her out by getting too close, so this was the best I could do:

We just got back from a 3 day trip to finger lakes area in upstate NY (First trip with the puppy!)

Very pretty area:

Just post sunrise on Seneca lake:

We were all impressed with how much less light pollution there is on the lakes given how heavily populated they are. The garish hotel on the right was sticking out like a sore thumb:

A 0.25 walk to these lovely falls (on Keyuka outlet trail), the play there, and the walk back tuckered out our puppy:

Tuscahoonga falls…

Heron on Cayuga lake:

Cloudy morning on Cayuga lake:
