The Gloaming Meadows, What Roams in the Gloam? is about the adventures of the night critters that come out and about in the late afternoon near sunset, just before the evening fades into night, and the sun is almost no longer bright.
While the daytime critter's day is just about to come to an end, the nighttime critters' lingering into the dim afternoon starts to begin. From dark mountains, blossoming fields, and high grassy hills, to the plants, shrubs, leaves, and trees of a dark dense forest, the gloaming meadows glows best at sunset.
Come see and know what roams in the gloam!
