Here's what I saw this week
during a Second Look.

| The sweet gum trees are some of the last to turn. |
 |
| The volunteer petunia continues to bloom. |

| Japanese maple |

 |
| A high pressure system brought blues skies for a few days this week. Rain is forecast for tomorrow. |
 |
| The juncos are returning for the winter. |
 |
| A few forsythia have been tricked into blooming this fall. |
 |
| Look at the changes in this maple tree from the end of September until now. |
I love looking at your pictures. They capture the subject so perfectly! I especially enjoyed the junco!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I think the juncos are cute birds. They come here for the winter and go back further north for the summer. Opposite of how I usually think of things.
DeleteSuch beautiful blue skies. It's gray and November-ey with snow pellets and gusty winds here today.
ReplyDeleteGusty wind and snow pellets. Yuck. That is supposed to be here tomorrow or the next day. :(
DeleteLove your pictures as always especially the Japanese maple. We planted one at the apartment but I didn't get a chance to see it in its first autumn. That's okay I have plenty of room to plant all the trees I want here.
ReplyDeleteWish you were closer so I could give you some seedlings from the Japanese maple. They are expensive to buy. However, they are very pretty trees. We have a dwarf one and a regular one.
