There will be a Poetry Fishbowl on Tuesday, June 1 with a theme of "I never though I'd have to say that."


Poetry in Microfunding:

There are three open epics at present, and "Rainshadow Road" is also open but I haven't posted it yet.

"Rainshadow Road" belongs the Daughters of the Apocalypse series.  It introduces Maggot to the Clearwater Caravan.

"The Hobbomak" launches the Bear Tunnels series. Emma and Jesse explore the images on the walls.

"A Celebration and a Consolation" belongs to Polychrome Heroics. Keira comforts her mother after the breakup.


The weather has been mild here, and it rained some. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a flock of mourning doves, a flock of sparrows, a flock of house finches, several goldfinches, a few robins, a pair of cardinals, a brown thrasher, two rabbits, and a squirrel.  I've also seen an indigo bunting in the yard.  Currently blooming: purple allium, white allium, honeysuckle, chives, bergamot, iris, peonies.  Asiatic lilies and hollyhock have buds.  Black raspberries have green fruit.  Mulberries are turning pink.

Birdfeeding

Today is mostly cloudy and mild.

I fed the birds.  Lots of house finches and sparrows, a few doves, and a squirrel.

I planted cypress vine in the septic garden.  I also started clearing space around the anchor wire for the telephone post to plant more.

EDIT 5/31/21 -- I cleared the rest of the space around the anchor wire.

Bingo

I have made bingo down the I and O columns of my 5-1-21 card for the Leaky Pipeline fest. I made another 7 fills, for a total of 17. That's above my average. \o/
