The word “equinox” comes from the Latin aequus, which means “equal,” and nox, which means “night.” It is the two days of the year where we have 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. The Autumn Equinox means that shorter days are ahead and is also the first day of fall. Join naturalist Laura Bush for an afternoon walk to see what is happening in nature during this transition from summer to autumn.
