Fall colors

(1/2) > >>

BowEd:
The pin oaks this year are very brilliantly colored.It was cloudy in the picture.Would of been more brilliant with the sun on it.

bjrogg:
We’re past our peak now. Wind, and rain was pretty hard on them. Still pretty good yet though

The maples were really awesome

Bjrogg

TimBo:
Yep, this was a great year for fall colors.

BowEd:
Beautiful picture BJ.
It's been awful windy here too lately.Things are a changing.
The pin oaks don't mind though.Everything else will lose it's leaves but not the pin oak.Although it's brilliant colors do brown over through the winter.By March they'll be gone.
The smell of fall in the woods stirs some and some not.
Took 1 picture years ago of the place this time of year.

bjrogg:
Do all oaks keep there leave Ed? My neighbor has several oaks on his lawn and they all keep there leaves till spring. I planted a few a couple years ago I got from NRCS and they keep their leaves till spring to. I think they were white oak but I don’t remember for sure.  Not a real lot of oak growing naturally around here. Ash was definitely the dominant species. Not anymore though

PS here a picture from yesterday of the birch woods
