Falling leaves

 

Our leaves are really falling now.  There's not much color left. 

This maple in our yard still has several leaves.  But

the ground below looks to be covered in gold.

 These are our neighbor's trees north of our house.  They

are the hard maples that have beautiful reddish leaves 

that fall quickly.  At the very top, I see what looks

like squirrel's nests.  They are rather large for birds.

I'll be keeping a closer eye on the nests to see if I

can spot a squirrel coming or going.

  Here's one of the little scamps now.  I see them in

our yard nearly every day.  It's hard to get a 

clear shot because they are never still!

They've been doing a lot of this.  Burying their food

for the winter, I presume.  I've seen one carrying 

what looks like a walnut although the walnut trees

aren't very close to the house.

October is nearly over.  Halloween will be a fun night 

for many tonight.   May each of you have a fun 

night if you have plans and a great week ahead!    

Congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinals!!!!

Until next time...
