Autumn in the garden:
The leaves are falling from some of the trees now, but our little Japanese Maple is still bearing its flame-coloured leaves.
The Wych Elm leaves are a glorious golden colour.
And in our little wood the ground is now a carpet of rustling brown leaves.
Finally, here’s D up a ladder doing repairs to the roof – I had to watch because falling leaves are one thing …

The leaves look beautiful. Fall is my favorite season, but like you, I’d rather avoid fall-ing. Here’s Mine

What a beautiful little Maple tree. First time I see the Japanese Maple. Your Autumn is a fantasy for me… we’re having a snow storm right now. But my Snapshot reminds me of better days. 😉

Our leaves are mostly down now, except the oak trees are always stubborn about holding on to theirs.

Maples are one of my favourite autumn trees and that one is a real beauty. It’s not cold enough in Sydney to get the full effect of autumn – I miss it.

Oh, I love this time of year, but I suspect husbands don’t. My husband was on the ladder this week also, cleaning out rain gutters and making sure the flashing was tight around the chimney before the snow falls …

Yeah I don’t do heights either.

Most of our leaves are gone off the trees and have since been blown to parts unknown. I do not let..allow..or suggest my husband get on a ladder. Glad to see D wears a hard hat.

My Japanese Maples in Fife are losing their leaves now but the recent high winds have helped with that. Gorgeous photos.

Lovely pictures. Heidi looks like her tail plus a bit more were dipped into a bottle of ink. She’s such a pretty cat. My husband is unable to climb a ladder now, so now I’m wondering who is going to get the leaves out of our gutters. Not me, that’s for sure!
