stick season

After the leaves have fallen, there is a time known as "stick season" in Vermont. It's a period filled with its own stark and subtle beauty. Instead of various shades of green, or yellow & orange, the forests and fields display many hues of gray, brown, and amber. When the leaves and cornfields are gone, the natural world opens up in ways unseen since April. Nests in the trees are revealed for the first time in a long time.
