As I sit at my computer typing tomorrow's post I hear the first whippoorwill of the season. The whippoorwill here is singing a three syllable song in a long and quick burst. The ones I heard in Florida sang a two syllable song much more slowly.
This morning I glanced out of the kitchen window and saw my dogwoods were blooming. I planted these trees last Spring and am amazed I have flowers so soon.
The pink is so vibrant and beautiful; I'm sure to make something in clay with dogwoods.
The white dogwood is just as vibrant when the sunlight reflects it's brightness.
So many blossoms all on one branch it amazes me such a small tree can produce so much beauty. As I type away I'm also serenaded with a chorus of tree frogs near and far with crickets as their backup.
Here's a dogwood blossom I made last year and finally got around to firing a while ago. This could be used as a chopstick rest or a paint brush rest. If I glued a little ring on the back it could also be a napkin holder. So many ideas so little time. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
