I do have pictures taken from one year to the next of the same trees, but not enough for research -- other than my own curiosity. <br /><br />I'm watching to see how one tree in particular behaves. Last year it turned bright red all over. This year, so far, it is still green with very little bits of red. So, I guess it hasn't yet gotten the signal to stop chlorophyll.<br /><br />I've wondered if our own human record keeping isn't our of whack with the changes in the movement of the planets over time. Could that influence our perceptions of seasonal/climate change.<br /><br />Of course, the global warming naysayers would have you believe that the continual pollution of our air, water and soil has nothing at all to do with the upset in these cycles. I just think they're too used to getting stuff from the grocery without any contact with the real world.Speedwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294062505751359294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-8109993690959121582011-10-07T09:31:57.941-05:002011-10-07T09:31:57.941-05:00I wonder what kind of number I will get this post ...I wonder what kind of number I will get this post ?<br />I would not compare from last year, which was with a four month drought and an early dropping of disicated leaves.<br />Did you know that scientists will be studying the beginning of fall to see if it is also moving back, just as spring is moving forward as a sign of global warming?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-81634747526310702882011-10-05T13:14:27.524-05:002011-10-05T13:14:27.524-05:00Hi, Alison!

I'm comparing what I see this summer with pictures I took this time last fall and it's not as colorful here. I'm hoping to see a bit more in a couple weeks.Speedwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294062505751359294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-53910715947547563492011-10-05T12:59:29.472-05:002011-10-05T12:59:29.472-05:00Gee, I do not find the trees any less colorful thi...Gee, I do not find the trees any less colorful this autumn. If anything they are better, because the late summer rains have kept more leaves on the trees.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-40744964755581037052011-10-04T07:35:11.189-05:002011-10-04T07:35:11.189-05:00G'day, Dive, and on behalf of the trees, I tha...G'day, Dive, and on behalf of the trees, I thank you.
