I started in the backyard where this lovely maple leaf caught my attention. At this time of year, I look out my bedroom window and watch the tree gradually take on a blush color at the top before it turns to a spectacular pink-orange.
The whole season is late. We had one day where the night time temperature was supposed to drop below freezing but I don't think it did.
Over in the milkweed bed, the plants are covered with seed pods. The Farmers' Almanac is calling for a tough winter. You might wonder how they make their prediction but this is one way, bumper crops. Everything is loaded with nature's bounty.
The little zinnias are still looking pretty fierce.
This is a neighbor's tree. You can always pick out the sugar maples.
The sumac along the road contribute to the show.
Another bumper crop. Here, the flowering crab apple tree is loaded with its little apples.
I looked across the road at these trees. You certainly can't miss them!
Then I looked up. These are wild grapes silhouetted against the sky. The birds will find them pretty quickly.
This tree has me wondering. It's a maple but its not a sugar maple nor the Norway maple that is so common in yards here, and it's very tall compared to both, something I must research.
Back in my yard, little Munk is wondering about it too, well, probably not. lol. Munk is my neighbour, an Eastern Chipmunk.
These beautiful fall-blooming flowers are chrysanthemums or mums, for short, and they mark the end of our walk today.
Once again, many thanks go to
