Grapes!

Grapes!
Monarch butterfly in the garden this evening. Also, I was able to get relatively close to a red shouldered hawk during my walk in the cemetery—but not close enough for good pictures.
Some big collard greens going into the smoothie this morning.
The two original raised beds are flourishing!
Couple of pictures from the garden this evening.
Dog vomit slime mold has appeared in our garden and, let me tell you, it is aptly named. I’ll spare you the picture.
Thank you, lilacs, for a beautiful few weeks. See you next year.
Strawberries are blooming!
Concord grape leaves opening up
It’s very windy here at Green Man’s Grotto. Our resident pond frog is taking in the air before the storms rush in tonight.
