Ken and I try to go every fall as it is only a half hour drive and each time we are amazed and in awe of the sights and sounds of this beautiful place . We went yesterday early morning and spent the morning gazing and taking photos !!
Down this lovely country road is the end and the beginning of Hawk Cliff off the north shores of lake Erie .
We were standing high up on the cliffs , the scenery is spectacular looking out over lake Erie !
Water and cliffs to the left of us and farmers fields to the right !
Lots of holes in this cliff that housed lots of Cliff Swallows that have now moved on !
Hawks , Falcons , bald Eagles and Golden Eagles are a delight to see here . Bird watchers and nature photographers from all over come here every year !
This bald Eagle was way out and up high watching all of us lol !
Lots of wild purple asters and golden rod in the fields and at the edges of the cliffs where lots of butterfly’s and bees gather . The weather was perfect , sunny with cool breezes ! This year I didn’t see as many Monarch's there as last year !
But the sights and sounds were still wonderful of the nature that was there and the sounds of the water gently slapping and swishing on the shore !
Ken and our Misty enjoying the sights !
It is a lovely hike around Hawk cliff so much to see and hear !!
Long way down !!
The air was hazy over parts of the lake but all in all it was a lovely morning and beautiful weather and as usual we enjoyed every minuet of it ! !
