It's a double digit day! The wild Turkeys have been around quite a lot this Spring. There has been a group of 5 that has been fairly regular, 1 female and 4 males that follow her around and strut their stuff. It's kind of funny to watch them strut and she just basically ignores them while she looks for food. 😄 This is one of them strutting his stuff and trying to look a bit threatening because he thought I was a bit too close to either him or his woman.
Happy Monday and happy new week! I received a Kalanchoe flower plant as a gift. I love the color and the little flowers make it look like an explosion of color!
It's Steamy Sunday here on the Blog! Sharing another image of my steam train by the mini Lilac. I wish Lilacs lasted longer, they smell so great and look nice. The flowers are just about done already. This is the Accucraft Forney Live Steam locomotive and it's train by it.
We have had some storms in the area recently. Most of them missed us but we finally got a decent amount of rain Sunday night into Monday. This was the sky one evening during that week. Fortunately it was just ominous looking and not bad with these Mammatus clouds.
It's Friday, TGIF! The Iris are just starting to bloom this Spring. They are having an issue and not as many as usual are blooming, they got nipped pretty badly by the 18F morning we had in March when they were already starting to emerge. This is one of my yellow ones by the Gazebo pond. The bokeh behind it was fabulously bubbly so had to share this image for today because Friday's Are Bokehlicious!
I have not seen these as of yet, it's still early though. This is an Ebony Jewel-wing Damsel. I love their green body color and the shape of their wings. Lovely little damsels that are fun to watch. They seem to like moving streams quite a lot.
It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! Today's flower is one of my favorites, Daisy Fleabane. Daisies in general of any type make me happy. It's very hard to tell the exact type of Fleabane, I am thinking Annual based of the leaves but could be one of the others. Fleabanes generally bloom May through August. They are in the Sunflower family in actuality and those make me happy as well. 😂
