“When the winds of change blow, remember… sometimes what appears dead is simply preparing for a new season.”
— Jane Lee Logan
Flowers may appear to be dying, dried out, but looks maybe deceiving at times.
Some are browning, looking dried out while others are new bulbs displaying new life is still abounding.
“Nothing and no one is perfect. It just takes a good eye to find those hidden imperfections.”
Daphne Delacroix
“In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they’re still beautiful.”
— Alice Walker
Nature doesn’t always adhere to the Seasonal Changes when we think they should occur. You’d think that when the Seasons changed to Autumn the Leaves of trees would naturally begin in the same timeframe. Nature’s funny that way, it’s on its own timetable, not a calendar, equinox, or solstice timetable. Plants and trees don’t depend on the Farmer’s Almanac to determine when they will change.
In our area some of the trees are just now starting to show signs of Autumnal season changes in their colouring. Still others show no signs of seasonal colour changes.
“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
Ecclesiastes 3:1-2
2 a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

Terri, host of Sunday Stills has challenged us to show our #Leaf colours. In our area are #Leaves have slowing been displaying their Autumnal colour schemes. Sunday we had a beautiful Sun Shiny day with a high in the low 70’s°, unlike the past couple of days with highs only in the upper 40’s° and freeze warnings.
With a rare warm sunny day Coleman and I meandered down to Goat Island Park and Greenway for a hike along the River Link Greenway to check out the amazingly gorgeous Autumn colours vibrantly painted throughout the trail.
Here are a selection of images from our hike #Leaf Peeping through the Greenway …
Hope y’all enjoy the video clip of our #Leaf Peeping through the Greenway.
