A late August walk at Beaver Lake

I love walking around Beaver Lake in North Asheville as an alternative walk to many variations of neighborhood walks.  It's a bit closer than the French Broad walk at Biltmore Estate that I equally love, so it won out this morning as a last walk before being gone again for awhile.

It didn't disappoint, with this heron watchful, but placid, nearby.  Unusual heron behavior.

And lovely patches of Swamp Milkweed pocketed the lake's edge.

Neither are remarkable photos, but reflect a nice morning's walk.
