“In the autumn, the entire backyard became a mass of lollipop-yellow
leaves, so bright they lit up the night like daylight. Birds nesting in
the trees would get confused because they couldn't tell what time of day
it was, and they would stay awake for days until they dropped out of
the branches with exhaustion.”

I found this leaf in Sacramento, at the Capitol Rose Garden, which is currently under renovation. There were no roses, but the trees surrounding the circle were putting on quite a show. Definitely one of my favorite places to leaf peep. Sacramento is enchanting in Autumn.
