One of several tulip (yellow popular) trees. They are beautiful trees!
Sweet Joe Pye - butterflies are going to be very happy when they are bigger!
I wish I could make this picture appear as it does in my eyes - the greens just pop! And it's green upon green upon green. Spring is my favorite green.
We close on Lot #4, the lot to our South, on Thursday. Perhaps that enboldened us and we walked up the wagon trail to the majestic sycamores! One reason I wanted this lot is so that no one ever cuts those beautiful trees! They just tower over the lot, ruling in majesty. (Of course another reason I wanted the lot is I don't want neighbors breathing down my neck!)
The view looking back toward the house - we love the knobs. It's like being in the mountains, and living in a valley.
We have more than five of this tree, and today as a group project of Jason, Sandi, and I we figured it out! It's a Black Cherry tree.
It has the loveliest flowers (this picture is from the Morton Arborteum - thank you)
I love the shape of the sassafras leaf :)
I found another grape fern. This brings us up to two! The majority of our ferns are Christmas ferns.
My ladies are getting bigger. I was afraid I had very unsmart birds. They would ONLY eat their baby chick feed, nothing else. Nothing from the kitchen, no treats, nada. I thought maybe if I left them some special chicken grubs/worm things they would eat them when I was gone. Nope. So I tried their itty bitty baby chick feeder (red in the middle). I filled it with tasty snacks. They wouldn't go near it. I left and when I returned it was empty. Wahoo. My birds can be taught!
Fun times are coming our way!
