More From the Gardens

The leaves on the raspberry plants are getting big.

The alpine currant is filling in, as well.

The persian pearl tulips got bent over by rain. By the end of the day they had straightened back up, but cooler temperatures have kept them from opening much.

And the robin's nest was knocked from our tree.

Little pieces of blue egg shell sat scattered on the ground.

I collected the nest and put it in my chicken house (tree fort). 

More new plants keep popping up in different parts of the yard.

The neighbor's trees have been busy with chickadees and yellow warblers.
