Fall is almost over

Had a nice trip up Skyline today, It had been a month or so since I had been up so it was good to be back. There was a dusting of snow on top and I saw a Porcupine,Grouse, and a load of Ptarmigan. There was also an odd gathering of small moth looking rascals. They were all hold up in the underbrush, but when they couldn't handle the wind any more they would all flap around chaotically. There were thousands of them.
Hope all is well
