Fall Colors update - Leaf colors


Over the course of a couple of visits this Fall, I took a few phone cam photos of the leaves changing. Also, took a few more when I went out to the cabin to finalize some pool closing matters a few weeks ago. The trees that were already past their prime color changes by then.
This first one is looking up at the house from the road. I am not sure what kind of tree this is, but it had a nice yellow shade to it.
The next one is looking down at the house from the back of the original lots. You can see all the oaks in the front yard, just beginning to change at the time. As I am posting this, there are still a few leaves to come down from these trees.
The next photo is looking back towards the tree line behind us. There is a one and a half lot parcel that adjoins us behind the garage, and it has a mix of trees in it. Several hickories are in this shot, but there are a variety of others including oaks and walnuts.
Last one below, this little maple. This tree is the single biggest culprit for dumping leaf litter in the pool area. But it does put on a lovely fall display.
I have a small seed feeder in it for the winter, and during the summer it is where the hummingbird feeder hangs.
