These leaves are from the Gingko tree. The shape of the leaves can vary a bit but they often have a fan shape. Once you recognize the leaves, you will notice this tree all over. In the fall, the leaves turn a bright yellow color and, my favorite thing, often the leaves all fall off the tree in a very short time period. Look at my video below and you can see the leaves falling like snow flakes. If you listen to the sound, you can hear them as they hit the ground. This often happens just after the first frost of the season. They call the Gingko tree a living fossil because fossil records of the Gingko tree date back 270 million years. They trees are native to China.
The dogs you see in this video include our lab, Belle, and our two Briards, Costaud and Clara.
