My Space

This morning                [6 eggs]

when I went out to

collect some eggs for breakfast I found these two hens trying to lay their eggs in the same nest.

I don't know if it is a dominance issue or if they are convinced that the other hen has found the choicest nest. They were each trying to sit in the same place very quietly and not fighting at all. Maybe it was a shoving match?

       

On the way back to the house I was amazed to see how fast the trees are beginning to leaf out. The leaves look yellow from the ground. Today is warm in the 70's and shade will be very welcome come the hot days. 

And...

Here is a view

of the myrtle in the front

of the property that

has spread almost

to the path.

I transplanted the myrtle

to the other side.

And here is a shot

of the myrtle I cut back

to the roots or at

least to the rocks as

close to the ground as

I could get. The myrtle

comes back looking better

than ever.
