Even over the last few days of colder weather I have noticed the colour seeping into a few of my Trident Maples.

First one just starting to change.

Visiting wasp.

This one was defoliated and has hardly a coloured leaf as yet. These red ones are more like late new shoots.

This other one however, is well on the way and has some lovely purple leaves. This one was also defoliated in May.

This Speckled Wood was also grabbing what little sunshine was on offer. He didn’t want to move away into the strong breeze.
