June Color

The day lilies and lavender have started to bloom.

Update on Turkey Eggs

We drove the gator out to the field where we'd found the turkey eggs. They were all broken and scattered. Some predator had feasted. I didn't think they would hatch when we found the nest unattended, but I don't think a turkey could defend against a fox or whatever got to the eggs. That's the fourth nest that has been destroyed.

Butterfly Bush

This butterfly bush was given to me by a friend who has passed away. I think of her when I look at the bush.

Small Lilies

The blooms don't last very long, but they are really pretty. The brown part is where we've been trying to get rid of bee balm which is one of three things trying to take over.

Honey Bees

The neighbor has honey bees. They've discovered our hummingbird feeders.

Turkey Eggs

A neighbor cut the hay in a couple of our fields. He caught sight of this turkey nest just in time to avoid it. I knew we had wild turkeys on our property, but I'd never seen a nest. It was in tall grass.

Asiatic Lilies

This was a freebie, but we've enjoyed them. We had four colors but I tried moving the pink one while it was blooming. The stalk broke off and it didn't grow another one.
