Today’s TDC says

Write a haiku about autumn. Bonus points for illustrating it.

We’ve been waiting for the redwings to arrive at the end of our garden and this weekend they appeared. They are really hard to see in the rowan trees as they blend into the red-brown leaves and red berries, but I got a photo of one yesterday that I’m quite pleased with. Here’s a haiku I wrote as I watched them flit from tree to tree.

Flashing through the trees
Stripping berries as they fly
Redwings have arrived
