As September transitions into October the weather is changing from sunny and warm to rainy and cool.
Let's take advantage of one of the last nice days for a while and take a walk.
Many of the wildflowers, like the thistles have set seed and are done for the year. September and October are months of plenty - lots of ripe seeds and berries and fruits.
Baneberries
False Solomon's Seal
There are still quiet pools of water in the Big Creek.
They will grow and be refreshed with the coming rains.
Rosehips
A butterfly enjoying the sunshine.
Snowberries
Honeysuckle fruit.
Hawthornes - the Cedar Waxwings swarm the trees when the fruit is ripe.
Honeysuckle
Blackberries.
There's still lots for everyone - bunnies, chipmunks, deer, and birds to eat!
And with rain comes rainbows! We recently had a lovely one.
A beautiful walk. That is a lovely rainbow!
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful, hope you enjoyed the walk.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your last September walk, Beth--especially the rainbow!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful - thanks for taking us along on your walk!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice Fall walk. The rainbow was beautiful. I have lived in several parts of the country and no where has the rainbows that are in the Pacific NW.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to take this walk with you, as it relaxes me... With all I have been through in the past two weeks... I need calm in my life! Hugs!
