The Grape Hyacinth started blooming this week…next the Iris, and I can’t wait to see the Ornamental Onions again.

Amazing sunset tonight.
Mockingbird
Wednesday, February 27th, 2008
This week mating season has started for Mockingbirds in northeast Texas. Mockingbirds mimic over 120 bird calls, and I’m guessing there are a couple of frog calls in the mix too. Really interesting, and a sound I love hearing when outside doing yardwork.

What Oak leaves in Texas do in January
Thursday, January 10th, 2008
During the Christmas season the Oak leaves on the tree in our front yard were bright orange-red, and have only dropped during the past two days, whereas other years they would have fallen mid-December. While raking yesterday, the proudest of all begged for portraits!
Mackeral Sky

November 17, 6:55 a.m.
Almost every evening year-round I’m drawn outdoors by the change in lighting, just before sunset. Called Mackerel Sky, stripes and mottled cloud formations like this precede a cold front, and occur during any time of day, but are most dramatic during sunrise and sunset.
