There must be some fauna amidst the flora

               Gingko Biloba

The Ginkgo leaf, in golden hue, when shed, 
A muscat grape, 
Is an old-fashioned butterfly, ill-spread, 
In shape.

Plus a lot of pendulous bubs, like the great Diana of the Ephesians.

From across the street it looked like a bush of wilted roses, or some orange rose pods (with my best glasses). But from nearby, these incredibly modelled blooms – I think I never saw such before.

How neatly the maple balls fell in the pot! Probably arranged there, but still lovely.

Purplish clover

This is a great rarity. I have not yet a picture of a dandelion; probably, since it's the quintessential weed, people get rid of it ASAP.
