Blossom

Rhododendron blossoms at the arboretum

🌼

I've been feeling pretty strong today. did a bunch of stuff around the house and in the gardens. cleaned out the dried plant matter and weeds from the raised beds and added some soil to even them out. the strawberries and mints are looking pretty good. the strawberries in my mom's garden are starting to really bloom now, and the currants are already starting to develop fruit.

there's also a recording of some birdsongs. it's a bunch of blackbirds mixed with various other birds, they sounded beautiful in person.

I thought the pollen on the pansies made them look like little starry velvet skies.

another incredibly beautiful day. the apple trees are almost all in bloom now.
