I didn't start this fall with any intention of taking pictures of fall colors. Colors this year have been brilliant and wide spread. So here goes with some more fall colors that were given to me.

| Brush on the river bank |

| Wagon trail |

| Aspen at the bottom of the escarpment |

| This time I got some sky in the photo like I was supposed to. |

| A cooperative pileated woodpecker that posed for me. |

| Common bluebell |

| Smooth fleabane |
Great pictures! I am looking forward to taking some fall pictures. I hope that we have some beautiful fall colors.
ReplyDeleteYou will have the reds that makes your fall so attractive. We don't have reds.
DeleteThey are indeed, lovely colours. It is my favourite season of the year and one which can be appreciated best in climates like yours and mine. having just come back from sunny Spain, they don't have anything like the array of colour we both enjoy,
ReplyDeleteWe've got to have some advantages for living in these areas.
DeleteWell worth going out for. It's just starting here but I'm not expecting anything this dramatic.
ReplyDeleteI've been out more this year so have had some great opportunities for photos.
DeleteWow, simply gorgeous! You've got some great colour there.
ReplyDeleteThanks. The yellows have been brilliant.
DeleteVery nice colors, Red, and flowers in bloom as well. :-)
ReplyDeleteI was surprised to find the flowers.
DeleteLots of beauty all around.It barely is peeking here south of you.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad that this doesn't last very long.
DeleteI like the name aster rather than fleabane. It is so abundant and such a good thing for pollinators as the cold weather comes. One cannot ignore fall. We try to pretend we are jaded, but she seduces us every year.
ReplyDeleteFleabane is not a good sounding name.
DeleteSpectacular fall colors indeed. Thanks for sharing...:)
ReplyDeleteThe yellows have been brilliant this year.
DeleteBeautiful out there... here it's very slow getting started.
ReplyDeleteWe don' have reds here like you do.
DeleteYou have great looking fall colors:)
ReplyDeleteThankyou. The aspens have been brilliant and when they are mixed with spruce they show off much better.
DeleteBeautiful photos!! I saw a Pileated today. THey are amazing birds.
ReplyDeleteThanks. The pileated is impressive.
DeletePS Aster is one of the few things still blooming for my bees right now!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see many bees on my afternoon.
Deletelove the pileated shot!
ReplyDeleteThanks. They're a very striking bird.
DeleteSo nice the changing colours of the trees in autumn.
ReplyDeleteWe've had great color this fall.
DeleteYou've really captured the essence of fall in these wonderful photographs.
ReplyDeleteNow essence is a word I should remember to use.
DeleteBeautiful color! And that woodpecker! That is a rare sight around here.
ReplyDeleteLovely fall colours. I'm envious, we get very little in the way of colour change around here.
ReplyDeleteThe colors are beautiful! I'm beginning to wonder if we will have pretty fall colors. It has been very dry until now. Most of the willow oak leaves have turned brown and fallen off the trees. We have now had a week of rain and supposedly rain through the coming weekend.
ReplyDeleteI can never see enough autumn colours but here at my house I have views for ever but no trees. Smooth fleabane is a name I've never heard before.
ReplyDeleteHi Red, More nice shots here. My favorite in this series is number 5, right before the woodpecker. Something about it ... it just has it all. Thanks for sharing all the pics.
ReplyDeleteHi Red.
ReplyDeleteGreat takes. I so like #2 and 3. I like the P. Woodpecker too.
Hi Red - I'm still here - still trying to adjust to my eye problems. Love your fall colors, and especially that Woodpecker! We don't have them here. We see Redheaded, Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers. We also have Northern Flickers.
ReplyDeleteThese are great fall shots! I love to see the aspens- anytime of year, but aspens in the fall? AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteOur leaves are falling!!!
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying seeing your northern fall colors. This will be my first fall in the South and I will miss that colorful beauty. I won't miss winter much though!
