Signs of the Season

This little leaf caught on the remnants of a spider web, danced for me in the breeze.


The Tulip Poplar is the first to release her leaves.


Pretty red Dogwood seeds will feed the birds this winter.


 Sunlight plays on these bushes turning them golden.


 Mother Nature highlighted these leaves on an otherwise green tree.

  10. G-Man- Thanks! The weather has turned rather dreary for a few days.

    Monkey Man- Thanks, fall in coming. I do expect a lot more warm weather here before it settles in for good, though. Thanks for telling me about the link.

    Alice Audrey- Thanks, I hope the smoke clears soon. The fires have been bad this year.

    Hilary- It is aways sad to see summer leave. We do have more summer left here. Mother Nature likes to throw out some early signs to keep us on our toes.

    Brian- I like fall, but summer is my fave. Fortunately we still have some left. Just a fall preview.

    Meleah- Thank you!

    Margaret- I like the crunchy leaf sound, too.

    Babs- I like it too. It just means that winter isn't far off.

    Linda- It is pretty, sort of like a second spring, filled with its own special colors.

  11. I absolutely LOVE the first picture in particular.. how it was dancing in the spider web. Although I am not ready for winter at all, these images remind me of the beauty that comes with fall!

  12. Katherine- I'm not ready either! I took some video of the leaf dancing, but I haven't looked at it yet.
