Wildflower Wednesday – Trillium

These are wildflowers that grow in the wooded areas around here. I believe them to be Trillium. They might go by other names such as Sweet Betsy or Toadshade.
Wishing you a great rest of the week.

Wordless Wednesday – blossoms
Wildflower Wednesday – 2018 Blackberry Winter Not so much – a few species of wildflowers
It’s that special time of year for blackberry winter. The blackberries are blooming & thunderstorms are threatening, but strangely the temperatures are unseasonably warm and pleasant.
I’m not complaining about the warm temperatures, but it’s a bit out-of-whack with the blooming season.

Blackberry Blooms

Oxeye Daisy

Poplar tree bloom bud and bloom.

Summer Bluet

Alfalfa Lupulina

Honeysuckle

Fleabane
Wildflowers certainly cheer up the landscape.
Hope you all have a cheerful rest of the week.

Wildlife Wednesday – Big Beautiful Turkey Hen
There’s a Big Beautiful Turkey Hen that’s been hanging around our garden and yard.
We noticed that she likes to eat the Meadow Buttercups that grows sporadically in our yard.
Since we discovered she likes them, my husband leaves the little batches of Meadow Buttercups if he sees them when he’s mowing. We feel that there’s something in them that the turkey needs or she wouldn’t eat every one of them she finds.
We’re hoping the big beautiful hen has a big flock of cute little poults in the next month or so.
I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Wishing for your week to be sweet.
