Monday is Now....

 I house cleaned the support beam of my deck today removing the robin's nest. To my surprise the nest had never been used.

The robin lines the base of its nest with a mud to make it smooth and this one has had no such treatment. I suppose the robin got distracted and build another nest somewhere else. I wasn't around to watch the activity of the birds but I assumed I had missed seeing the hatching. 

Two out of three of the stalks on my reblooming iris have been cut and brought inside. I got my first bloom out of the seven buds that are there. 

My new burning bush is not doing very good at this location but I am sure when we return to normal rainfall that it might take off next season. I have three different posts in the ground holding things and this morning I leveled them and filled in new dirt around them to make them stand up straight.  We have warmed up again and it is nice. 

Thanks for stopping by today.
