the best of Nature At My Doorstep: Sky Watch

Sky Watch - Sunset

It was an eerie sunset this evening.

There is some slash burning going on in the distance, and the smoke has tainted the atmosphere for miles around. We first saw the fires when we were coming home from the city.

The moon tonight is almost 3/4 full.

Sky Watch Friday
