Autumn is the season between summer and winter. In autumn, school starts again after summer holidays. At the beginning of autumn the weather is not bad, although it sometimes rains. People like to go to the forests to pick mushrooms. But then the sky turns grey. It is often cloudy and windy. Days become shorter in autumn. Yellow, orange and red leaves fall from trees. Some birds fly away to warmer countries. Then it gets colder and in November it sometimes snows.

Осень - это время года между летом и зимой. Осенью снова начинаются занятия в школе после летних каникул. В начале осени погода не плохая, хотя иногда идут дожди. Людям нравится ходить в леса за грибами. Но потом небо становится серым. Часто бывает пасмурно и ветрено. Осенью дни становятся короче. Желтые, оранжевые и красные листья падают с деревьев. Некоторые птицы улетают в более теплые страны. Затем становится холоднее, а в ноябре иногда идет снег.
