The Chadakoin River, pictured here in downtown Jamestown, is glowing with life and autumn shades. What did you see outside on this fine fall day? Corridors like this one can be a wonderful place for wildlife on the move including many species of migrant birds and dragonflies apart from all the endemic life we often speak of. I have seen some stunning warblers here! Scott Kruitbosch Conservation & Outreach Coordinator

I took this photo yesterday minutes from RTPI in Jamestown. We are about to hit the peak of fall foliage in Western New York and this weekend’s clear, deep blue, autumn skies made for some magnificent moments. If you have the day off from work or school tomorrow please be sure to find some time for a hike, birding, a run, some biking – anything to disconnect and get outdoors for a while. I’ll continue to share more scenes from the season all week long. I hope you share the sentiment with your friends and family. Scott Kruitbosch Conservation & Outreach...
Read MoreAutumn shades at RTPI
Here are a few photos of some of the bluest of blue sky you can see mixed with clouds over RTPI yesterday afternoon, all set above the slowly changing colors. We are seeing some yellow and orange fall foliage starting to pop in the immediate Jamestown area, conquering the remaining green. This week should yield an explosion of vibrant autumn shades. I hope you are able to make your way outdoors on this weekend of purely splendid October weather. Scott Kruitbosch Conservation & Outreach Coordinator

Fall foliage can take on so many appearances, especially when combined with the sky above us. This scene has a look of fire and smoke as the leaves continue to change and the sky fills with lake effect clouds in the Chautauqua-Allegheny region while temperatures continue to drop. Autumn has arrived. Be sure you make the time to get outside to enjoy it because it does not last long.
