Today at Iten's Acres:
Got an early start.
Mom got up about 1 AM, sat in her chair, and basked in the light of a
clear star-filled sky and a myriad of lightning bugs. She was in the
"heavens."
The heron comes just about every day now; between he and
the black water snake, I'm surprised there are still frogs in the pond.
Yet, I hear a chorus of basses every evening. No turtles this year,
though. Guess they moved on. Maybe
some new ones will move in later this summer. Maybe I could convince my
new heron friend to bring over a few fish from my neighbors' ponds.
Still no rain and no hint of a chance until Tuesday. Some folks got
rain last week. We didn't at Iten's Acres. Well, maybe a drop or two.
Could really use a day or two of steady rain. The place would burst
into color, I'm sure. Not that a few things aren't blooming. The Acres
are never devoid of lots of color. I just need some more--especially
the lilies. The balloon flowers and coneflowers are ready to bloom.
Blues and pinks coming up!
