Gardening Mothers Day

​it was supposed to be nice all day. It was nice for most of the day so we made the most of it. 

Magnolia in Bloom

​our magnolia, which is a magnolia x loebneri’white rose’ is just now coming into bloom. It’s a good thing. It was a little later than the others because we’ve had Gaelforce winds the last three days as well as torrential rains. It is looking stunning. And it has a lovely light scent. 

So Windy!

​we’ve had two days of incredible winds here in Annapolis Royal. It’s enough to snap the daffodils and strip blooms from the few trees that have them. The only positive is that it’s relatively warm and not raining.

Wind in face then wind at back. 

Lowest Tide

Tabby Cat in a Landscape

he really is pretty. 

He is hoping for birds. 

Up at the crack of dawn

​last night there was thunder and lightning, as a result I was up ungodly early. I did some gardening done before I had to start work.

It might not seem like much, but I’m pretty excited about this garden sculpture. I made it out of Willow that we cut from one of the places that I walk the dog.

Peepers!

​Peepers are Little, loud frogs that sound off as one of the first true signs of spring. I don’t have a photo because I’ve never seen one for real. I’ve seen photos, but that’s all. Today we stopped at the Lequille Country store and I could hear them for the first time this year. There was a symphony of peepers.
