Who needs to see a sunflower hugging itself today?

Happy sunflowers.

A duck, on a dam, in our ditch.

It's all about sunflowers around here.

Today's bloomer, Wild Bergamot.

Second Sunflower of the year. It's my favorite time of year!!

First sunflower of the season.

Feral Pumpkin.

My one single Coneflower is going to bloom.

It's hollyhock season!!

Stormy afternoon.

My 6 year old Catalpa tree is blooming. This tree was a 3' stick with roots when I planted it.

The tall grass is blooming.

I've been scratching my head about what that bright light could be. It's coming from the field, there is nothing out there.

Bunny in my jungle of a yard this morning.

See this girl? She has absolutely no regrets for slipping her collar and having a jaunt around the field.

It's a good year for volunteer Sunflowers.

Took a little woods walk this morning. Wild Geranium, Mayapple, Jack in the Pulpit and Solomon's Plume.

Baby Sunflowers are coming up everywhere!!

Look what my idiot brother did to the windbreak my Mother planted 25 years ago!! She planted these as tiny baby trees, set up an electric fence to keep the cows we had then out, mowed so carefully around them for years...and in one evening he ruined it all.

Today we went riding. It's to fucking WINDY to do anything else.

Peanut close-up.

My first Purple Coneflower to sprout!

The red tulips are blooming.

Monarda coming up on the west side of the shed! I had given up as I sowed these winter before last.

Another Champaign IL chud wanting to kill people, and me, for protesting on his street.

The apricot tree started blooming today, so of course it's going to freeze tonight.

Another inch and a half overnight. 5.21" for March.

Rain, rain, rain...yay, yay, yay!!
