Farm Show!


For the first time I went to the PA Farm Show all by myself. It's the largest show of it's kind under one roof in the US. I've always wanted to go and really study the animals but it's so crowded I became frustrated and only stayed a few hours. I did manage to get some nice shots. 
You can see all my favorite shots on Flickr.






Fancy chickens drink Coca Cola. 


Today was carriage racing. I saw many of these teams compete at Devon last year. 
It's such an exciting event.
Boy do those horses and ponies fly!

Baaa...


I had a fabulous fall day at Landis Valley Museum with my friend Sandy Sandy and her wonderful parents and sister.


Today it was the Tunis sheep that proved the most photogenic.






As we were approaching the horse barn, Sandy gazed up in the sky and said, "look at the bald eagle." 
I thought she was crazy until I saw the white head. 
And then we saw TWO!
A very odd site in Lancaster County.




Such beautiful colors. Like Mother Nature's stained glass with all the light coming through.






One of my favorite residents, Tanya the turkey.



It really is a magical time of year.
