Sweaty

We had a lovely May Day, but I dressed too warmly for an excursion to the Botanic Garden.  Before that, I had little luck with the back yard.  I missed skinks, bluebirds, red bellied woodpeckers, and more.  At NBG, Irises and spatterdock bloomed in ponds.  

I spotted a chipping sparrow on a construction fence.  A robin ran down a path.  One pond was full of turtles and a mallard pair.  The loop trail I picked was longer than I expected.  Combined with the heat, I was well melted.  I thought I took a lot more pictures than I came home with.  Strange.
