Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum). One of the many trees and shrubs growing amongst the aviaries at the Hawk Conservancy in Hampshire, England.

Not as pretty as in past years because of some dry weather we had later in the summer but still pretty, lots of leaves dropped before they really could turn good. We also are having trouble with the Asiatic Beetle which is infesting a lot of trees. The warmer summers up here are not helping the Sugar Maples. :( In years past they looked healthier than this. I am very concerned that after awhile we will no longer have our beautiful Sugar Maples here, they are dying rapidly and only maybe northern New England and Canada will have them. :(

November 3rd I gathered the colorful maple and plum leaves we had in our yard and took photos using my diy light tent. I took over 100, and my 14 favs can be seen in this set.

There was a small incident on Sunday involving some broken pavement, my toe, and the sun, which was shining straight into my eyes. This unfortunate combo resulted in two very bruised knees, some scrapes on the heels of my hands, and a wee dent on one corner of my camera just at the bottom of the cover to the memory card. After my knees collided with the ground, my right hand must have then taken the rest of the impact or the camera would have been toast. So today on my lunch hour I took the camera out for a short walk around campus. All seems well, which is really, really good because I'm not too keen on the thought of buying a new camera at the moment, having just ordered a new pair of glasses that cost a bundle but will be well worth it if they help me to see where I'm walking. It would also help if I'd pick up my feet.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Maple's reward for allowing me to brush his teeth.

These maple trees on campus seem to have only female flowers. Last year I only caught them after they started setting seeds. This is what they look like before. The flowers have exploded all over the trees over just the past few days when we had warm weather.

They're all in a pile at the curb now, waiting for the giant vacuum cleaner to take them away.

I'm going to eat a waffle now.
