Signs of early fall around the farm

Berries ripen on the blackhaw viburnum


Red tinge on the hydrangea as day length shortens

The purple coneflowers burst into bloom


Plump milkweed pods ripen their silken seeds


Pokeweed blossoms become berries




Woolly bears on the move!  They will become Isabella Tiger moths next year.

Black walnuts ripening and falling from the trees

Shelf fungus appears overnight on the old maple


Wild sunflower....

...and big bluestem tower over the prairie plants.

Autumn bouquets bring the season into the house.
