Something new

Herb Robert appearing (the flower, not a person). This is one of the humble flowers of summer that appears in shaded areas in forests and along roadsides.


It doesn't have a season really. It is with us all summer. Viburnum blossoming. Looks like something you would find in a Japanese garden.


Speaking of humble, I found out from one of the blog readers that what I thought was phlox is actually called Dames Rocket. The Dame's Rocket has four petals and the Garden Phlox has five. We regret the error.

It's a beautiful day today and we're out burning the burn pile. Spending a long time in the pasture and noticing small grasshoppers. I usually don't start to notice them until much later in the season, some time in August. Grateful to notice something new.
