Pics from this week

We’re enjoying the Fall color views from our breakfast table, and on our outings in the Littleton area. Here are some photos from this week. 

Rapids along the South Platte River near the Mineral Avenue overpass, with some nice yellow Cottonwoods
Nice view of Eagle Watch Lake, through a yellow Cottonwood

Nice yellow Cottonwood by the rapids where the rafters and kayakers usually put in, on the South Platte River
Reds and yellows along the South Platte River
Cottonwood trees and clouds, with some pretty yellow in the foreground
South Platte River with pretty yellow in the foreground
Pretty red leaves — my iPhone says this is a Virginia Creeper
Pretty reds — the three-leaf pattern reminds me of the Poison Oak I used to see in California — my iPhone says this is Fragrant Sumac
Raindrops on Blackrock Lake
Cottonwood tree chock full of Blackbirds all enthusiastically singing
