Autumn is Coming

We love and do a lot of forest exploring. We'll do more now since my husband started his retirement in September. One thing I always love is searching for mushrooms, chestnuts, berries and some lively critters. I enjoy this time of year as it makes me alive. I love the rich colors of reds, oranges, and yellows. The misty fog in the morning is especially beautiful.

Dew on spider webs, mushrooms and colourful leaves.

St Catherine is a small village a few minutes from where we live. They have a bakery, bar, small grocer, place to eat and many more places and offices. The place we visited is a forest outside of this village. It was an early morning and there was a lot of fog which left "dew" on many plants including spider webs. It was a nice and tranquil morning.

 Acorns on a still "greenish" oak leaves branch.

 Many webs with dew on them.

 A lone mushroom. There is a mushroom that looks similar and edible, but it's more pink in the middle and reddish when you break it up.
