Fall Photos at 290 O'Neal Ln

It has been a gorgeous fall here in NW Arkansas. Here are a few images of fall foliage I've taken, mostly at 290 O'Neal Lane (our place)--some from our yard, or our fenceline, or our ditch. A few towards the end are from the Univ. of Arkansas campus. All but four images are of native shrubs and trees. Fall beauty can show up in some surprising places if you have the eye to see it. Click on the image to see a slight enlargement, then hit the reverse arrow to return.
