Hello Autumn! Welcome! :)

 As silent as a spider spinning her web, enters Autumn! :)

 We didn't see her coming but suddenly she's here! :)

 And just like that she's spun her way into my heart! :)

 The last of the season's fruit can still be tasted! :)

 Sweet to my soul! :)

 Any corn left on the stocks needs to be picked now and enjoyed, before it's too late! :)

 Some flowers are done, leaving seed pods behind, ... a beauty all it's own! :)

 Leaves are turning vibrant colors as satisfying as any flower! :)

 Pumpkins cheer us with their "orange hurrah"! :)

 I even love the ones still dressed in green! :)

 The Pacific North West begins to share Autumn's showers, resulting in fungi! :)

 Mushrooms spring up every where! :)

 The change in the air makes one want to snuggle in and get cozy! :)

 Fall has her own beauty that gladdens the heart! :)

 The Rufous Hummers have left but the Anna's are here again! :) There are annuals ...

 And perennials that they are taking advantage of while they last. Not to worry, I will keep feeders up year round for them now that they reside in our yard throughout the winter. :)

 Leaves ....

 And Fall blooming flowers are adding joy to our yard! :)

 Even the flower bouquet I cut from the yard, and garden, whispers "Autumn!" :)

She seems to sense that there are those who reach back longingly for Summer.
So she enters quietly, bringing her bountiful gifts to warm her way into our hearts!
Hello Autumn! Welcome! :)
