A Berry Good Year

While we've been out walking recently I've noticed that the trees are already showing signs of Autumn and are beginning to withdraw the nutrients from their leaves. It's strange that we think of August as still the summer because really it is the end of the summer and the start of autumn. In a little less than a month the days will be shorter than the nights.

The summer is fantastic of course but  I think that the autumn is a glorious time of year. From what I've seen this year is a great one for berries. Sloe, hawthorn, elder, rowan, blackberries, guelder rose and holly all seem to be laden with berries this year. Here are some berry nice photos for you!
