Today at Iten's Acres: May 31, 2012

Today at Iten's Acres:
Saw a fox and coyote today. The coyote was checking out a deer carcass in the swamp across the road. The neighborhood fox greeted me on my afternoon walk--at the back of the property. Checked me out and decided I was scary I guess. Ran off into the tall grass. Beautiful creature.
Neighbor Aaron has another dog--brown lab I think. She's not as "hyper" as Stella was. Loves to walk though and joins me whenever I'm out and about. Haven't seen the Outlaws for a couple days though. Yes, she found the pond. And knows how to shake the water off. Yes, my clothes are damp.
Still waiting for a lily outburst. One last iris is still considering whether to bloom. The Japanese iris should be blooming in a week or so; they're always last. Triteleia started blooming today and astrantia. God has a "corner of the market" on variety.
Still no word from Dave.
Oh, planted a bunch of wild flowers the last two days. Love naturalizing my property with Ohio flowers. Hope they take root and enjoy their new home at Iten's Acres. Let the competition begin. First Queen Anne's Lace today as well.
