Snowdrifts allowed the rabbits to eat several feet of bark on this tree a few winters ago; without the bark, the tree died. (NDSU photo)
As far as I’m concerned, it’s been a gorgeous fall.
The trees put on a great color show and then dropped their leaves in showers of yellow, red, gold and orange.
Around here, they’re mostly yellow. Some of the lilacs were a bit weird, though. They flowered or sent out some small leaves. It was just a few shrubs, but they shouldn’t be blooming in the fall.
