We've been doing a lot of biking in anticipation of a biking holiday in Brittany. This is a pond that we go by, and this is a red winged blackbird. The trail is an old railway bed which has been converted to a bike path and in winter, cross country ski trail. Lovely to go through the woods and past these ponds.
Last fall I planted some tulips at the cottage. I can't at the house because the squirrels will get them - either the bulbs, or the flowers once they've opened - very frustrating. Even at their end, these were gorgeous. Now fingers crossed that they come up again next year!
And I've started on my square. Think old newspaper joke.
There is so much red in nature from botanical to animal - we are spoilt for choice. But 'old newspaper joke'? - I'm really curious and will probably kick myself when all is revealed.
ReplyDeleteAnd just in case you thought from Dianne's first paragraph that we might joining her on this biking holiday - think again! Rosie and I will be seeing Dianne and Robbie off on their biking holiday from the comfort of a car.
