Well the weather was a big disappointment on Wednesday, it didn't get above +11, was rather grey and overcast. I made the mistake of starting off the day in shorts for my morning jaunt, when I got back I quickly changed to something much warmer. I didn't find many birds - Cedar Waxwings, Northern Parulas, Hermit Thursh, Loon and male Mallards. The wild flowers are popping up in leaps and bounds, seems every few days there is something new in bloom. Everything is green and lush after the rain. I sat on the deck last evening listening to the Owl up at the head of the lake and the Hermit Thrush along side of the yard.
Lupins are almost in bloom.
Lilacs, too. The sweet smell is strong as you walk by them.
Lily of the Valley - they are from Lois' garden.
Canada Mayflower is now blooming throughout the woods, along with Star flower, Bunchberry and a few Lady Slippers.
The Cedar Waxwings are enjoying the apple blossoms.
The Northern Parula, singing.
Enjoy your day!
