Autumn in Woodstock

October 2010 has brought a panoply of colors surpassing anything I have seen in previous years. The foliage is so rich in color that wading birds, while still a presence in early autumn, seem to be captives of the resplendant hues, at times barely distinguishable from their surroundings. A little bird, like the titmouse,  blends into the leaves and limbs of the tree by which it is embraced.
Every now and then I succumb to the sheer richness of the foliage, and snap another picture.
