The long pile of shells was left by summer's stormy waves. (See what the Lake Ontario shore looked like in May on my earlier post).
Here's a close up of the shells. I was told they are zebra mussel remains.
I believe this is a type of maple, from the leaves. In any event, I love the color!
The picture above was taken a few weeks later, the end of November. It's the willow tree on Lakeshore Road at the entrance to Rhododendron Park (same page in the blog as the lakeshore above). I must be a creature of habit when I go for a walk, as I seem to have the same pictures in different seasons!
This grey squirrel stood stock still for more than a minute, but I knew if I moved closer for the better shot, he'd be off like one!
So that's the pictures from mid to late November. Now I'll post the ones I took today.
