Thank you to everyone for comments on Monday and Tuesday.
Up the lane last Saturday morning - with a fantastic blue sky, the oaks still have all their leaves.
We hadn't had too many windy days so there were still acorns on the trees on Saturday - although with Monday and Tuesday being so awful I expect there are less now.
There were lots on the road too
The oak leaves may be hanging on but they are starting to turn from green to browns and yellows
The ivy on one trunk is now flowering
The view over the village with one brown field, it looks as if it's been sown already but no idea what with
Not sure what's happening with this field. Last month it looked as if it had been drilled straight into the stubble. Now there seems to be a wheat crop coming through but lots of something that has leaves like oil-seed rape but the wrong flowers.
On the other side of the road, in the huge sugar beet field some of the beet are getting bigger
The rose hips are all bright red now - plenty of them too
I wonder how many leaves will be left when I take the October photos.
Back Soon

I wonder if that crop is a growing manure crop to be ploughed under soon?
ReplyDeleteThe quality of light at this time of year does give beautiful photographs. I hope those ivy flowers will soon be full of bees!
I think bees might be hiding after two days of continuous rain here.
ReplyDeleteHopefully next month I'll be able to work out what it is growing in the field - you could be right about a crop to be ploughed in - it's a mystery
Our oak trees are currently clothed in their stunning lime green spring foliage, so different to acorn season! I love watching the seasons change in an oak tree :)
