Musings from the Backyard

I just picked some delicious raspberries from the yard, put them in some raspberry yogurt and enjoyed the scrumptious delight. It was good!

Moments ago I saw a bloom that no human being ever set eyes on. It is a beautiful daylily.

We have an abundance of toads this year. The leopard frog tadpoles are growing in the pond. There have been two sightings of box turtles now.

This has been a good summer already! Oh yes and today's temperature here in the heart of Long Island's South Shore will only be 71! Oh what a wonderful day!

Blooms Abound

The Daylily Season is here. The blooms have just begun. The first two weeks in July they will be at their height. Each day is different. Since the blooms only last for a day the yard has a different look every 24 hours. Some are later bloomers. Many will bloom within a week.

Come by whenever you like!

See you soon!

Natural Enemy of Pond Fish

There he is! He flew over to my neighbor's roof after Moe and I chased him out of the yard. He is an Egret. He has been here before. He can clean out a fish pond quickly. They are a beautiful bird however.
