Fall/Winter

This oak still has some green in it's leaves.
Which would you say it is, now that it's turned cold and the leaves are falling?  I say here in Texas you just never know what the weather will be, because from one day until the next it can change drastically.  I've taken pictures of the trees here in our neighborhood and notice a difference as well.

This oak tree has more brown in it's leaves and they are located about 100 yards apart in the same courtyard. The tree next to this one on the right,  has no leaves at all and I believe that the tree trimmers are at fault for this.  They really gave this boy a trimming back during the summer and it's not come back since then.  Winter will be trying for this tree, because of the exposed areas where it was trimmed.

The willow located across the street on the corner, seems to be doing well, as it blows in the nice 70 degree breeze we had this last week.  It didn't last long because we already have 30 and 40 temps to deal with.  So, I ask you........is it winter or fall?
