Yesterday my husband did all of the lawn cutting.
I love it when the orchard is newly mowed and looks like a park.
Walking through the orchard in the evening is a great time for assessing how the crops are coming along. It's been an early Spring this year, but of course it's impossible to predict what will happen.
I can't believe how far along the cherries are. Looks like an early crop this year.
The apricots already need to be thinned.
The birds were singing their hearts out to me - I felt like I was being personally serenaded!
This cardinal was singing a beautiful solo.
But I was especially glad to see our orioles are back!
Our garden is all worked-up and ready to plant. We've had such a
lovely Spring, it has been hard to wait until Victoria Day weekend
to plant. Next weekend: garden planting!
