Have you read a good book on nature?
Write a blog post with a photo, a story, a poem, anything goes because I love to see what Mother Nature is up to in your area. Please submit one blog post per week and link back to nature notes in some way..

There was a blog that I could not get to at all as it said it could not “resolve host” and another that the link did not go to any post and I could not find it on the blog at all. After trying and trying, I went ahead with this week’s Nature Notes, but the collage is missing 2 photos that I could not get….
Now we are into fall.
Blooming in the front yard slate pathway garden… New England Asters, Crooked Stem Aster and Black-eyed Susans.

Nature walks are wonderful. But you don’t have to travel
to special location to enjoy Mother Nature. There is so much to see in your own neighborhood or even in your own back or front yard. Get a guide-book of the wildlife in your area and learn the calls of birds and frogs and toads. So many times I hear a bird that lets me know what I am looking for in the trees.
Have a wonderful nature filled week!
So many beautiful flowers. You have done such a beautiful job with your landscaping.
It is wonderful the way you do that mosaic each week; it has to be quite time consuming and takes some talent to arrange . II know that sometimes I don’t have time to visit all the links on monday when I post (or Sunday evening late) and then when I see the mosaic i’m reminded of some I missed last week and I go back. So it’s a lovely thing you do. I’m sure people will understand if it is their picture that was missed — computers do weird things sometimes and we all know that.
Your flowers are beautiful. Sunflowers and asters make a beautiful ‘bouquet’ (more beautiful outside in nature than indoors in a vase).
Those sunflowers are so beautiful. They are a flower that always makes me smile.
Michelle – glad you are continuing with Nature Notes – it is one of the memes that I enjoy the most. I am sure people will understand if there are some glitches …. love your flowers this week – I can’t wait until my garden has matured to this level!
Seeing more and more Asters in gardens this Summer/Fall, I’m going to add them to my “sunny beds”. You have a beautiful collection for butterflies and bees!!!…:)JP
fall’s coolness is so refreshing after a hot long summer
your fall flowers are so lovely, I always like to see the mosaic each week. I appreciate the work that goes into continuing. Thanks so much.
I don’t care what time of year it is, I love seeing flowers with all their great color!
An array of beautiful flowers!
What a delightful selection of Autumn flowers, Michelle! With such beauty, Autumn has nothing to envy Spring for.
Many thanks for hosting!
