It's Michigan or the Enchanted Mitten for those in the know.
Quite a few trees changing now, all my southern relatives say this is the part they miss the most.

Rock on. We are happy to have you in the mitten and glad you are enjoying the fall, it's my favorite part of the year. I didn't realize that your colors were more muted down south, wonder what the science is behind that. @Leo in N E Illinois ?
I'm sure I mentioned this at the all-state show - but if you do have the chance, going to see Pictured Rocks and timing the fall color up close to peak is an amazing site. Bit of a drive, but the U.P. is another world!
Here's an Amur maple that I've gone back and forth on re: throwing it in the garbage. It's a gnarled stump that's been a mother tree to a forest of cuttings that are ready to pot up into forest format spring 2024.
Was certain I'd throw this away, and then it goes and reminds me why I took those cuttings - always a beautiful display. May just have to toss in the ground and come back to it in a few years.

My River Birch is changing colors. Noob tree alert.
If you look close you can see me staring out the front door.

Nice pic! It's 29F this morning in lower Michigan this morning.
Pictured Rocks is pretty good, but if you want the full monty, Brockway Mountain Drive is the place to see fall color in all its grandeur.
