The days are just packed

Air temperature 58 F, wind west about 8 mph, blue sky. Foraging this morning, bike ride this afternoon?

The human mind embraces stereotypes, even in those who claim to be free of such sins.

Tuesday floral report

Bedstraw blooming, what I think are the first wild roses, cinquefoil and wood sorrel small yellow blooms. Blue flag iris still doing well. The roses aren't the ones in the bog -- those got mowed down to the ground last fall, but are coming back and should bloom in a couple of weeks.
Fresh roadkill limited to a painted turtle out near the bog. Old corpses of porcupine and raccoon still there, if rather decayed. Scavengers slacking off, or sated?
Windy, gusting over 25 mph, but I got out on the bike anyway. Did not die.
