Nature speaks more eloquently than words and here are more of its late September and October autumnal expressions, this time from the place where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains.

Thank you, Maria. I view the colors as nature’s parting gift before winter. We need to try to absorb as many as we can to last us through the winter (though that might be necessary where you live 😊).

Here it’s tropical all year ’round, but I’ve experienced autumn while living in Miami (but actually having to drive up north to see more colors). Still, Florida does not compare with a State like Colorado or other ones in North America which burst with color. However, autumn in the tropics is still felt. We do have some deciduous trees, but ‘perennial’ is the rule. ‘Perennial’ (perennis) in Latin meaning ‘through the years’.

While it’s always a little sad to watch the plants lose their leaves and petals and know that it will take months for them to return, I really like to live in a place that has different seasons (even though I might be quite envious of your lush, perennial vegetation come January 😊).

Really beautiful and evocative Tanja!! Nice to see that milkweed getting ready to disperse its seeds (I think that is what it is yes?)

Thank you, Lisa.
Yes, you recognized one of the flowers: it’s Showy Milkweed, our most common species. Most of the pods have popped open and dispersed their silky, soft seeds by now. Let’s hope they will germinate next year and harbor many Monarchs. 🦋

Spraachlos vor soviel Schönheiten der Natur. Der Herbst ist immer ein Sehgenuss, jedenfalls wenn die Sonne die Farben so richtig leuchten läßt. Wir haben hier gerade wieder unzählige Kraniche im Teufelsmoor, das ist immer ein Höhepunkt im Jahr.

Vielen Dank, liebe Maren. Dieser Herbst ist besonders leuchtend und farbenfroh und das genießen wir.
Schön, daß die Kraniche bei Dir in der Nähe sind, wir hören sie zu dieser Jahreszeit nur selten, wenn sie zufällig über uns ziehen, auf ihrem Weg ins Winterquartier.
Herzliche Grüße zurück,
Tanja
