A walk to the postbox is an excellent opportunity to check out other people's gardens in Autumn. And what a display I found! I could have photographed bright berries from another ten or so gardens, and had to restrain myself in the interests of balanced representation. I particularly love the bronze creeper decorating the side of an old town house.
Our own garden is sadly lacking in berries or creeper. That said, in tribute to the extremely mild weather this Autumn has shown so far, a few of the younger raspberry canes have found the energy to produce a late crop of berries. We took more than our fill of the main crop in August and so I left these latecomers unpicked as an offering to the birds, however they seem more interested in fighting each other for the small hard yellow cherries on our tree.
