Scenes from the Woods

July 2009

 


Thunderstorm over the horizon.

 


The first wild blackcaps are getting ripe!

 

 

 


Burdocks--a horrible plant--tenacious and hard to get rid of.

 

 


My apples are now golf-ball sized!

 

 


A Momma Robin is not happy to have me under her tree. The nest is about twenty
feet off the ground, but I used the zoom.

 

 


My arch-nemesis! Japanese Beetles attacking my red potato plants.

I noticed that several stalks of the red potato had gotten so
leggy and long it fell over, so I stuck a pot of dirt under it
to see if it would root.
