Natural History Wanderings

Superior National Forest has a new fall color report for 9/16/16

Fall is creeping forward at about 5% of peak.  Moose maple, hazel, bush honeysuckle, wild sarsaparilla, and large leafed asters are all changing color in the understory.  Most canopy trees are still green, with a few branches or leaves colored.  There are leaves starting to fall though, if you leave your car for a few hours, there will be leaves on it.
