Our worms are here! All the way from California. They will be used in the Vermiculture. More on that later.
A neighbor called to say that they had a small bird using their old wreath. There were two eggs in the nest encirled by the ribbon. It is probably a titmouse, though I did not see the bird.
Got a call from a resident who said she saw a small bird using this hole. I haven't seen it used yet, have you?
No, to the Canada Goose because of the poop. They can really become pests.
Goose poop. Watch where you walk.
Yes, if it is a green frog.
Yes, to this lovely wildflower, Bloodroot. But it will soon be gone, smothered by the lesser celandine.
Grape hyacinth is another garden escapee, but there are just a few on the Maris Trail.
We will soon have a light on our Foulkeways sign.
The road to be closed.
This beautiful cherry you might not have seen, but the others are familiar.
Fig buttercup or lesser celandine is a weed that forms dense patches displacing many native plant species like bloodroot, wild ginger, spring beauty, trout lily and others.
A few marsh marigolds can be found here at Foulkeways. It is a wildflower of wet areas and very toxic. Don't eat it!
This is cardamine or bitter cress, and can be found all over. Definitely a weed, but only a problem if it is in your garden.
This Thyme-leaved speedwell or Veronica is just too pretty in my book to be called a weed.
This vinca or periwinkle is an escapee from the garden, so some might call it a weed when it is in the woods.
