Morning glory

The morning glories have begun to bloom - a sign of seasons changing. The vine is all over the dogwoods but the heart-shaped leaves are morning glory while the dogwood leaves are the classic teardrop. All the birds, the squirrels and the rabbit came to breakfast in the sunshine.

There are enough clouds that the sunshine is regularly interrupted. The morning glories are gone by noon. I caught a glimpse of a tiger swallowtail. Losing the trees really discouraged them.

Late afternoon has brought light rain. It seems to have made the birds hungry - they're flocking around the feeder again.
