More Autumn scenery



We visited a friend so that Bug would have a playdate with her dog and this is the scenery we saw along the way through Sillwater, Ngahere and Nelson Creek. We are near the coast so we don't get as vivid red colours as other part of the country gets. Most trees in New Zealand are evergreen so they stay green throughout the year but there are still portions of trees that are deciduous and do lose their leaves. This photo above is up the road from us, not my house but one of the neighbours.










 Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Tom's signs.

What a lovely glimpse into your surroundings—it's fascinating how New Zealand’s evergreen landscape shapes a subtler autumn palette, and that scenic drive through Stillwater, Ngahere, and Nelson Creek sounds like a peaceful backdrop for Bug’s playdate.

Only 4C here, but the trees are finally lush and green... "sad" to see yours, a throw-back in time, kinda!

There is a garden round a hidden old villa just out of Javelick that is full of introduced tree species that colour fabulously in Autumn - burgundy and vermillion, yellows and gold, a spectacular sight since we had a stout frost last week.
