There has been so much rain in the mountains this year..  the wettest I have experienced..  Already, we have reached our annual rainfall averages..

This means there are lots of days that are rained out at the our shop..  and the streets are often quiet.

Nathan Baerreis is a gentle soul.. and a great photographer..  Sharing a little photo essay from his encounter with a fledgling on a quiet day Valley River Avenue in Murphy, NC....

Hope you enjoy it!
