Plumas County color spotter Mike Nellor returned to the Community United Methodist Church in Quincy, yesterday, to take a picture of it using his mobile phone. Seen behind the church, towering black oaks are Near Peak, their leaves turning from green to orange.

Along Main Street in downtown Quincy, maple were glowing in iridescent hues of red, orange, yellow and lime.

Mike says yesterday’s showers brightened the color, though he – like many other color spotters – believes this year’s color lacks the luster seen in previous years. Drought, again, is accused of being the culprit.
