Birds, Flowers and Summer



Well we are now having average to above average temperatures so we can assume we went from winter to summer. We are trying to get things planted in flower pots and the garden. Hubby seems to think that it should be done all at once. At least to me it feels like he is in a hurry all the time. I did manage to catch a picture of the woody woodpecker feeding out of the finch feeder. He seems to think if he hangs just right that it is fine for him to eat out of it.
We are enjoy each day a new blooming iris in our garden now if all of them would bloom it would be something. We have over a hundred colors and most of them are register irises. As license growers it make for a challenge remember the names. We or I should say I will go over our maps and list and get all of them at least rerecorded in the garden book plus tag outside with tags I have. This make me have long days at time as I am trying to create a spot on etsy with some of my handcrafts. As I love to sew and paint and do a lot of different crafts it makes it hard to decide what to list that will sell also. Of course housework really becomes a forgotten work in this house at this time of the year. Hopefully everyone can enjoy some of what we do on this blog. I am going to post the bird and flowers with this posting.
Hopefully the farmers will be getting there crops in the ground as we seem to have a small window of planting time. I saw a load of seed corn go out this morning that could easy being a million dollar load. Between cost and what it was going to grow it very well could be.
