Ft. Harrington's Japanese maple took its time turning red this fall, but it did so in a rush over the past two days.
It's been a busy week so I enjoyed a break to take some photos. I was delighted to discover the Maple tree coming into leaf and displaying it's lovely tassles. Spring.. I love it:-)

There's a double row of maples in Westmoreland Park. When I visited here last week, just two of them were in fall color, while the rest were not quite ready.

Red Maple (Scarlet Maple) are considered invasive because it adapts to most soils, grows quickly and is shade tolerant. Oaks will decline if Maple are not thinned.
Maple trees short before the Big Maple Plain in Tyrol, Austria. This place lies some metres higher, the trees are a bit more colorful than the others.
For me one of the most beautiful places in the Northern Limestone Alps. I love this combination of mountains, plain and wonderful trees. I thought that the trees would be more colorful at this time of the year. See this photo in my stream, 2 years ago, 2 weeks earlier!
The Big Maple Plain (1216 m) is located in the middle of the Alpine Park Karwendel on the Eng Alp in Tyrol, Austria and can be reached only via Bavaria.
The Eng Alp is the biggest alpine pasture of Europe. Here everybody can see how farmers are important for taking care of the landscape. Thanks to their constant care and a regular use of the alpine pastures the big Ahornboden (Maple Plain) can be maintained in perfect conditions. In summer almost 500 cows graze on this alpine pasture.
Some of the maples are older than 500 years and during autumn their leaves show striking colors.
The Alpine Park Karwendel is:
• one of the biggest reserves of the East Alps with its approx. 920 km²
• the biggest nature reserve of Austria
• the biggest reserve in Tyrol (730 km²)
