This shrub has become too big for the area that it is growing. I have pruned it back so much that if I reduce it's size in half it would look awful.. I don't like loosing the place for the birds to feed in the winter but I do think it will be removed this summer.
The river birch continues to put out great texture and color. It almost looks a little sloppy as it sheds in bark in such a manner.
The sun is shinning here again today. The silver maple reflects the light on it's trunk and branches. I do miss the leaves but they will be back in the spring.
I am in the art room today sharing my past skills with students and trying to keep from getting paint on my clothes. I had a set of clothes that I wore as an art teacher that were always spotted with some paint spots or whatever but I did toss most of them the past few years.
Cooler weather is coming and maybe flurries on Thursday. Thanks for stopping by my post today.
