Their Last Days

How beautiful the
leaves grow old.
How full of light
and color are
their last days.
...John Burroughs

We did a lot of raking on Sunday. However, the trees have more leaves to lose before they are done. These are from the pear tree in our backyard.

Oh the pear tree has more to give than just fruit! Our son has a big one and I shall look for these wonderful colours! fav

@maggiemae Our pear tree does not bear fruit. It is an Aristocrat Pear but I still enjoy this tree. It is more like the ornamental Bradford Pear without the self pruning limbs that fall off by themselves!
