I Love Spring
Can you see the turkey? just to the right of the little cedar tree, he's really big. This is the field out back of the barn, I'm really bad about estimating distances but I know he was at least 50 yards from me. I guess he was feeling pretty safe in our field, I generally don't allow hunters here so even though it was turkey season he still strolled around the field like he owned the place.
I just love it when the redbuds are in bloom, the mayapples are up and the pastures get green. Soon everything will be lush and the dogwoods will be blooming with the peonies not far behind.
If anybody knows what this plant is, please leave me a comment. The leaves remind me of a slow growing, variegated mint but I've never seen these flowers before. It's really happy under a big old elm tree. I'd love to know what it is.
