It Isn't This Season's Colour!

Beside Rawcliffe Lake, York, again and I spotted this small patch of autumn colour. I didn't want to see autumn colour. I didn't expect to see autumn colour, but there it was. Don't get me wrong, I like autumn colour, but not in the middle of summer. Fortunately there was only this small patch, so I'm sharing it with you so that you can see what we have to look for later in the year.

At least they add a little color to contrast with the greenery :).

Ha! Got autumn colour creeping in here in Sussex too!

A rather confused specimen, I think!

Lovely autumn colours, clearly that tree is confused.

Oh my! It's only July.......I saw a couple of Autumn leaves on a plant this last week too and was very surprised. Maybe it's lack of water.

Please don't mention Autumn, please. I get sad when we turn our clocks to Winter time and the day is at its shortest and it takes me some time to adjust. Not so bad now that I don't have to go to work and finish after nightfall. But the colours of autumn are beautiful, I must admit.

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

I'm not at all ready for autumn, there is still a lot of summer left to enjoy! No more autumn photos for a while, I promise.

It makes a nice splash of yellow against the green. I have noticed the odd bit autumn colour creeping in too. I wonder if the sunny spring has caused things to grow a bit earlier than normal this year. Nice capture.

Oh pretty even if the timing is out. Hopefully the other leaves 🍁 won’t catch on
