We’re jumping from mid-April (last week my furnace was still going) to mid-June, hot and humid. I don’t remember ever having such a cold, cloudy spring before. Last week I was shocked to see a huge flock of geese heading north. Usually I see flocks that big only in the fall when they’re heading south. The grass is certainly liking this weather though.

My orchids are loving this weather too, they’re still blooming like crazy, and here’s a new one that I got as a baby last year,

and I’ve got a pretty amaryllis bulb blooming,

and the birds continue to entertain me, here’s two of the dark boys fighting,

and last but not least, a very scraggly Indigo Bunting,
