Friday miscellaneous report
Aug. 15th, 2025 11:31 amSmartweed blooming, also called lady-fingers, white water lilies in the cemetery pond, usual supply of goldenrod and chicory and tansy. A few asters, but it's early for them still. Purple loosestrife setting seed.
No geese at the pond, either on my way out or coming back. Don't now what's up with that. One roadkill red squirrel in the next town up, crow in attendance for the rites. Also, largish splash of blood, could be deer or raccoon, but no corpse for ID.
Got out on the bike, air temperature upper 60s F and gusty wind, up to the golf course and over to the road through the bog. Did not die.
