Box Elder bug on Milkweed seed pod

Rain this morning and then a cold front came through and suddenly it was autumn. Dug out a long-sleeved shirt to wear. I heard an eagle and an owl on my walk but most of the birds have left. A few trees are considering turning color. Even the asters and goldenrod are coming to the end of their season. Must be feeling a little like hibernating myself because I'm really looking forward to my nice soft bed and sleeping in tomorrow morning. Now where did I put that extra comforter?
