Zooka wants to know if they call this season FALL because this is when all the leaves fall off the trees. Zooka, it appears you are right! Why is it called fall? Recorded use of the word fall as the name of the third season of the year comes from as early as the 1500s. The name is thought to originate in the phrase the fall of the leaf, in reference to the time of year when deciduous trees shed their leaves. #ZoOka#thezookatales#vizsla#hikewithyourdog...
