Maybe it's the hot dry weather we've been having... or maybe not, but I took especial notice while I was in Maine on Saturday and Sunday of a bit of autumn color starting to sprinkle into the uplands. The sumacs in certain places are beginning to turn to yellow, orange and crimson and a few maples are showing the faint first hints of color. Now it's going to get harder and harder to concentrate on tasks at hand without daydreaming of the approaching bird seasons
