Coastal Mountains
I enjoy visiting the Coastal Mountains from time to time. Late summer and fall are my favorite seasons. Leaves are beginning to change colors and are falling from the hardwood trees. And, best of all, deer and elk are heading into rut and becoming much more visible.

One antler needs help
Lakes and Berries too

Looking for a snack

Vernonia Lake

Something looks tasty

Ripe Elderberries

The best snack is always the hardest to get

Red-winged Blackbird

Great photos, John.
