This is an American Beech showing its fall color.  It is green and yellow and brown all over, and it sparkles in the sun.

 

American Beech in our area holds onto its dead brown leaves through the winter, until the new leaves push the old ones off.  This one hasn't gotten to that stage yet, but it is on its way.  I love watching as it goes through its changes.

 

 

HAPPY FALL!!!
