"For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. 

For nature it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad."  

Edwin Way Teale  

Autumn Across America, 

This weekend we could not make it to 

the park so these photos are from last 

weekend. Fall was in the air and the leaves.

Shaun

and Wendolene were in fine form.

The were few ducks and ducklings left.

And a small flock of Pine Siskins had joined 

the Waxwings.

"The morns are meeker than they were,

The nuts are getting brown;

The berry's cheek is plumper,

The rose is out of town.

The maple wears a gayer scarf,

The field a scarlet gown.

Lest I should be old-fashioned,

I'll put a trinket on."

Autumn
