Nature Journal: Changing Leaves

Just a few of the leaves of the Allegheny Serviceberry tree (see April 21, 2005 archives: Allegheny Serviceberry Tree) have already begun their transformation from green to red.

The summer is passing too quickly. At a local church cemetery, there is a headstone of a very young woman who died in the 1800s that reads, “She loved the summers here.” It makes me sad that she had so few summers to enjoy.
