5-25
This morning the pink veined white flowers of Common Wood Sorrel were open, as the pumpkin-gold flowers of Golden Ragwort, and the globular brownish-purple flowers of Purple Avens AKA Water Avens.
Overhead Chimney Swifts could be seen powering sleekly back and forth across the skies.
Closer to earth, two male Luna Moths hung on the side of a weathered shed in total, stark and dangerous contrast.
Overall, the heavy sweet scent of Russian Olive - an alien invasive tree species - came and went with every shift of moist morning air.
