You can definitely tell that the seasons are changing here. It's subtle, but the mornings are cooler and the spiders are unusually active. On this morning's walk I saw an aggregation of webs spread out on the bushes. The dew was still on them, and the slanting early sunlight made them glow. They looked like layers of lace handkerchiefs spread out to dry by some eight-legged washerwoman.
That early light defines volumes clearly and casts good shadows, too. Here's my neighbor's holly bush.
