Not the best spot for pumpkins (got all male flowers). But the sunflowers did ok.

Basic yellow

Light yellow, a new favorite

An old favorite, red

And as i downsized these pictures, 2 condors flew past before i could get the video ready. But i caught the last 2... second of which is immature.

And just for fun

Poison oak: still the prettiest plant in Big Sur

Just broke camp and drove to cabin 2 hours N ... last night in the tent was -4C ("25F") so the colour here in Ontario comes with ice in the dog dish

Red in background is stag horn sumac.

My favourite season ... no bugs, no humidity, sunshine is gentle and welcome on your face and to warm you ... crisp mornings, frosts dropping the leaves noisily in the woods - and the campfire is as wonderful as camp coffee at sunrise (well, almost!}

At the cabin - more for fishers than for beachgoers ...

Autumn skies are fantastic. In a couple of weeks I will head South again and collect some potatoes and parsnips from the garden while visiting. Even now the highways and byways are ribbons of fire with the glorious red maples ...

My dad paid 50 cents for this maple tree. It was about a 2 feet tall when I helped him plant it many years ago. Turns fire red every fall.
Today he said “little did I know that at 50 cents I thought I got a good deal but that tree really cost me $10,000.50 after all the sewer repair bills over the years“
lol

I don’t know anything about the fungi clan, but saw this one this morning and thought it looked pretty neat!
