Most of the day yesterday was spent on errands and finalizing prep for my colorwash class today. Early in the evening I went out with my camera to see what was blooming. The Columbine is almost ready to bloom. It is next to a Weigela bush that is also full of buds ready to burst open.
This is my oldest Cranesbill plant. It is pretty small this year but still able to bloom. Maybe I need to pull the creeping Charlie and wild strawberry out and give it some room.
The first Jack in the Pulpit is up. The brown striped ones are slow this year and have just peeked out of the ground.
I finally got a photo of a crow. They are bobbing up and down so fast it is hard to get a clear shot of one. He has a seed in the end of his beak.
This Cranesbill is a taller variety.
I love the complexity of the flower centers.
