Flowers

The morning was a loss.  I saw a dragonfly in front of the garage when I came home.  The wind was fierce so I'm not surprised it preferred the more sheltered South side of the house.  After lunch I spotted the pine warbler again.  A house wren investigated the seed feeder.  Wasps were getting competitive on the rue.  A small bird chased a larger across the sky.  The white breasted nuthatch and the blue jays got away without photos. 

The slime mold looked unchanged.  Jasmine and forget-me-nots bloomed nearby.  Coriander and freesias shared space.  The false indigo was already making pods.  Magnolia blossoms were open all over the neighbor's tree.  And the white and red lily flowers had opened.  I found a red russula mushroom in the grass. 

Five titmice rushed around the yard.  One sampled all the different feeders.  A downy woodpecker liked the bark butter tub.  A hummer got her fill of juice.  In the late afternoon, a pair of geese made a V through the still water as they escorted one large gosling.  It is amazing how fast geese grow
