It was another gorgeous day out on the prairie today, but this morning was super foggy. I hiked the quarter-mile loop before the fog burned off and took several pictures. Thought I'd share a few here.
 |
| The sun trying to burn through the fog. |
 |
| Spider webs strung through tall grass like lines on telephone poles. |
 |
| Big bluestem and sumac. |
 |
| A spiderweb delicately strung between tall grasses hangs heavy with morning dew. |
 |
| A close-up view of the same spiderweb. |
 |
| More spiderwebs low in the grasses. |
 |
| Spiderweb among sumac. |
 |
| Stems of big bluestem stand like sentinels on the prairie patiently awaiting to herald news of winter's first icy blast. |
 |
| Spiderweb mid big blue and sumac. |
 |
| Spiderwebs strung and looped through the grasses. |
 |
| Tiny web of some ground dwelling spider. |
 |
| This spider web is delicately woven in a half-circle on the lower part of a big blue. |
 |
| A lone meadowlark flies low across the prairie as the fog retreats, rolls away, and evaporates. |
 |
| The dried red head of sumac plants stand just above the grasses on this south-facing slope. |
 |
| The reds and golds of tallgrass prairie in autumn. |
 |
| Fiery red sumac against a backdrop of gold and bronze. |
 |
| A close-up of fiery red sumac with asters and what's left of late summer's ashy sunflowers. |
 |
| The last bit of summer's green against prairie gold. |
