Fall Colors in Mitch Park 10/31/13

Gorgeous fall day with lots of color. I had just gotten my new camera and took it out for its first walk at Mitch Park in Edmond, OK. They have a very nice paved multipurpose trail that runs throughout this well maintained, popular park.

I ran across some wildlife – a Red Shouldered Hawk, Meadow Katydid, Green Slant-faced Grasshopper and a Carolina Mantis.
