Meadow on the first day of summer

Butterfly weed. We have had so much rain in June, that the black-eyed Susans are still mostly in bud, just waiting for the sun. The grass is soggy.
Cabbage white on heal-all - Because of all the rain and cool weather there are no butterflies to be seen. Are they waiting for the sun?

common St. Johnswort


Deptford pink



A ladybug and an aphid




Common milkweed is coming into bloom, and the scent is lovely.
