I'm always amazed how birds create their nests! This one has done its job and now it will return to the earth from whence it came. (Sorry, couldn't resist waxing a bit poetic. :rolleyes:) Certainly is an indication of summer's end with the fallen nest and leaves. I do find the OOF leaves in the front a bit distracting. Either removing them before the shot or making them more in focus would have been helpful. This image certainly fits our theme well, John. :smile:
