Empty Nest and Other Signs of Autumn

This past week has been hot, day temps in the 80s, making it difficult to believe that it's October and we could have snow any day. Michiganders know where their boots are, just in case tomorrow is the day.

Right now it feels like summer is going to go on forever, but there are signs that suggest otherwise.

Deserted nest in a leafless tree.


Foggy mornings.


Color in the hedgerow.


Goldenrod gone to seed.
