green

This Spring has been so full, so resplendent with growth it brings joy to my eyes. I want to wrap myself up in it. When I visited Longwoood Gardens earlier this month I found this luscious hallway to the bathrooms in the conservatory. This is how I feel today, my skin sprouting green.

my garden companions

These two newbies spend their time on our garden fence all day. Mom and Dad usually show up around dusk. I think they are doves. Very friendly, I can get within two feet of them. One is a bit more wary than the other as you can see in the pic.

I love wetlands

Recently spent a little time at Heron Pond in Illinois. One of my fave places to wander. Learned about gabion baskets and castor mounds.
