Lehigh River Headwaters &x28;15&x29;

American beech (Fagus grandifolia) leaves, Lackawanna County, within State Game Land 312. Beeches retain much of their dead foliage through late autumn into winter, adding much-appreciated texture and color to the otherwise barren woods. The leaf colors range from pale yellow-orange to deep orange. I've licensed this photo as Creative Commons Zero (CC0) for release into the public domain.
