Ornamental Pear Tree.......


I was out mowing and mulching up leaves yesterday.  We had a very warm day but it was windy.  With the earth's tilt the lighting on things have change.  This ornamental pear tree, no fruit, is still holding onto it's leaves.  It drops them late in the season.



With the warmth we also had strong winds.  So as I would stand there to photograph the tree, the leaves would flip sides from dark colors to light red or yellow.  It would have been great to capture as a movie.

The warmth will be gone by the middle of morning today as we become very cold and it will feel like winter.

The leaves are very pretty and I love the blue sky. Sorry to hear the cold is moving in today. Take care.

Yes, what very attractive leaves ... and a beautiful tree to accompany them!

  The flowers are getting a gentle rain this morning.  It  makes the soil and sub soil happier as our drought is less these days.
