Learn all about the four seasons at www.turtlediary.com



Why Do We Have Seasons?
In many countries there are seasons – spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
Why? The answer is very simple!
The earth turns round the sun, that’s why only part of the earth gets a lot of warmth from the sun. This is the part nearest to the sun. Thus different countries come into the sunlight at different time.
When it is summer in the north, it is winter in the south. When it is summer in the south, it is winter in the north.

                                            Autumn

Autumn begins in September and lasts for three months: September, October and November.
   In early autumn the weather is sunny, warm and bright. The temperature is rather high – 10-12 degrees above zero. We call this period the Indian summer. (бабье лето)
In late autumn the weather gets coolest. It often rains. The weather is cloudy, rainy and vet. The days become shorter and the nights longer. The temperature is lower -5-7 degrees above zero. Birds go away to warmer countries.
Autumn is a beautiful season. The leaves are red, brown, orange, green and yellow. They fall down to the ground. It is a «tasty” season too, because there are a lot of fruit and vegetables in autumn.
