Friday Fences #26

 Found this little plant poking through a neighbours fence while out for a walk..

There's a change in the air...

While all my Northern Hemisphere blogging friends are starting to enjoy some warmer weather, and the first signs of Spring are starting to begin, here in New Zealand things are starting to cool down.
There are no more warm, balmy breezes or nights sitting out on the verandah watching the sunset.

The mornings are dark, and the evenings are closing in. The next few weeks will mean weekends spent getting the garden ready for Winter, and getting firewood stacked.

Autumn is officially here, and the signs are everywhere. Here are a few photos from our neighbourhood.

Leaves are changing colour and falling...

Trees are already bare..

And all sorts of mushrooms and toadstools are popping up..

Even the new growth is changing..

 Have a great weekend everyone ...
