Today in Lincoln Park

By Michael Traynor

 

(Editor’s Note):  As we experience this December deep freeze, enjoy Mike’s photos of his beloved Lincoln Park and its denizens from just a few days ago!) 

 

On this sunny day today in late November, autumn color can still be seen….

 

Yellow leaves and brush cover inundate this barren bench
Yellow-tailed squirrel, pleasingly plump, always hungry
Gold coast squirrel, lazily sunbathing in front of its leaf-side cabana
These are berry likely to stand out on sunny days
Barren pathways winding around burn orange ground cover

 

The very last roses of autumn
A mixed color palette on Aster Street until holiday decorations emerge
