After we left the yard with the windmill, we headed back to the old family homestead. This was the spot that we were originally exploring, when we met the landowner. This old home is heavily overgrown with bush, and unfortunately it has been significantly vandalized. The structure is badly deteriorated, and likely beyond salvage. This was our last stop of the day and we spent an hour or so here taking some more photographs. The last time we were at this location it was in the middle of winter. The light was softer, which made photographing the interior a little easier. But it was also quite cold, which made working with the big cameras a challenge.
When we first pulled up to the site there was a male Ruffed Grouse strutting his stuff on the side of the road. His namesake neck feathered were all splayed out on display and he was holding his tail feathers in a fan. I didn't have my digital camera ready, but managed to get a snapshot of him with my phone.
