Peonies
It is high season for peonies, and Jen gathered a big bunch to bring home today.
Here are some of the varieties, in situ.
Many flowers are blooming. This Silver-spotted Skipper visited a blackberry blossom, a harbinger of jam.
The Red-Winged Blackbirds are numerous, and talkative.
Here’s a Blue Jay in flight.
And here’s an Oriole. We seem to have a lot of them this year, and often hear their five-note call.
Daisy had a big day in the pond today. She went swimming after lunch with Jen and Sarah, and again in the afternoon when she had a visit from Saffron, the Golden Retriever. We expect Daisy to sleep well tonight.
