The Cardinal Watching Billy

The trees have finished flowering, so now it's the azaleas' turn to bloom. And there's a cardinal in our courtyard! I've seen him twice now, and this time, he and Billy were really checking each other out.

All geese do is eat. Same for goslings.
Neat new growth on the bush, above. Below, Greg and I went to open the summer camp his friend's family used to go to. This is the cabin we stayed in. It was great weather the first day, but it rained the second day.
Here's one of the many truckfulls of leaves we raked from around the camp.
The woman, below, was helping to rake. Her grandparents started the camp that was a predecessor to this one. She's 87 years old, and still raking! She's really amazing.
I found this huge spider on my glove as I collected the leaves into trash barrels.
Below, only the red petals are growing on that bush. The pink ones fell from the tree above it.
The grounds crew raked up some of the petals.
Pink littered the ground everywhere.
