fall in the black forest

Howard and I went for a walk a few weeks ago on the last day before the fall chill set in. We just wandered and looked and took it all in...

I have featured this church from the front in all four seasons. It looks quite nice from the back too.

Do you know what these are?
Walnuts. A sure sign of fall.

A pear tree in full "bloom". I have to admit I was looking around for the partridge...
