I took this picture in November. The area looks quite different now as we’ve had a lot of snow since then (mostly this week!). However, the picture looks so peaceful, and the autumn colors are so lovely, that I decided that it was time to post it.
The holidays are a hectic time for most of us. This picture reminds me to slow down and enjoy the scenery and the moment.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!
Earlier this month my husband and I took our dog for a hike in a local park here in Toronto. There are wooded trails, clear open fields and of course the obligatory pond or two. All of the kinds of things that a dog or nature lover would enjoy!
The trees here in Toronto took their time changing color this year. When I took this photo the tree’s had just begun to change – and remember it was already November. Most years the trees leaves Change color halfway through or near the end of October.
Lovely either way, I love fall colors.
You might remember that back in November I posted a photo of a lovely blue flower that I now believe was Wild Chicory. If I’m right, these flower seed heads are Chicory flower seed heads.
I find it amazing that a flower can still look beautiful, even as it is dying down for the winter season.
I don’t know why but I enjoy seeing how plants change once cool weather arrives. Cat tails and Milkweed puff out and their seeds blow through fields and meadows, flowers turn to seed heads and of course, the leaves on the trees change from green to red, orange, gold and yellow.
While we may regret the loss of summer, Autumn can be a beautiful time of year if we just take a moment to enjoy it.
