Is the autumn on its way?

This morning was the first time the car was covered in dew, does this mean that autumn is nearly here?
Locally the elderberries are starting to ripen, there appears to be a huge crop this year so we will be out collecting these beautiful fruit to make into wine, jelly, jam and cordials. Today I had to go across the county to Huddersfield. As I drove down the country lanes I also noticed the huge numbers of lovely rose hips. These too will juiced and made into cordial which is an excellent winter warmer.
The steam juicer will be working overtime again this year!
