Nature walk October 8-17 - PLANTS

For this nature walk I walked around the neighborhood of Brighton and looked at some of the different types of trees and bushes that grow around the area. I went with one of my roommates who knows a lot about trees as he is a landscaper, which was really interesting because he would point out and identify types of trees I had never even heard of before. The weather was absolutely gorgeous (a little overcast, but the temperature was amazing). Also, finding a burning bush was probably my favorite part. At my old home in Philadelphia, we had tons of burning bushes around our property and they were some of my favorite plants. When it finally becomes fall and the bushes turn bright red, they are absolutely beautiful. The one that I found was starting to turn red in some areas of the bush - I will upload another observation when the plant fully changes colors!
