The music.
The things that touched us on our nature excursions this week.
Wood sorrel.
Another gorgeous roadside creature with which we communed.
Baby wild bunnies born at a friend's house down the street.
The Eldest took a 10-minute video of the bunny with his camera.
Because what could be cooler than bunnies?
Except maybe the secret inside the potting station...
..discovered by the potter himself.
He'd been jotting down notes for the past week or so about bird comings and goings to this oven bird nest and imagine his excitement when he bustled in the house yesterday hooting and hollering about a fledgling in the grass.
This was no ordinary fledging, mind you. By the look on his face, I'd say this was a kindred fledging who resented a world unfolding prior to coffee intake.
But also a precious fledging whom I feared disturbing- a first day out of the nest sort of fledging.
So we journaled about how it might feel to be a fledging on our first day out of the nest. Wove in threads of fact as well as fiction. Added his name to our Knowing Nature notebooks. And then realized how many tiny creatures are experiencing first-day-out in this mindblowingly beautiful season known as spring.
Fancy fungi.
The best things are found in clover right now. Clover and good percussion. Enjoy.
I'll be in clover
I'll be in clover soon
I'll be in clover
I'll be in clover with you
