Rainy day on the Rideau

A very rainy day here in the North East.

Lola had fun rolling in the wet leaves. It was a lot of work to brush them all out.

The trees are bare now.

The sumacs are holding on to their red berries. These will be tasty food for the birds over the winter.

Chickadees, waxwings, nuthatches, and warblers eat sumac berries in the late winter when other fruit is hard to find.

Only the Larch and Tamarack still have their yellow needles. They will probably be gone by next weekend, or whenever we get another big snowfall.

The spruce, cedar and pine will stay green and be covered with snow. I will make some more movies of our adventures here in Narnia.
