a gift from my nine year old son. i am just grateful he didn’t put it in his pocket and forget it there.

the chorus frogs have started up in the cattails, and these red maple buds couldn’t wait any longer to burst open. everyone is feeling frisky these days. happy may day!

i was raking today and found this little daylily sprout hiding under the oak leaves. under the sprout itself hid this impressive array of tuberous looking roots, all arrayed and invisible, feeding the green growth above.

remember effie, rue, prim, clove, glimmer, and katniss? well, they have been living in the house with us since early march. i had expected that they would be outside about three weeks ago but it has been too cold. (yes, it’s been a little ridiculous at our house). anyway, they finally went outside yesterday, and i got do start my spring cleaning. these are just a few of their feathers still floating around my house. i have a sneaking suspicion that i will be sweeping up feathers for a very long time.
