I already posted the goddamned honeysuckle, and the rest of what I did this weekend is random, including washing a bunch of rugs because I had the pressure washer out to wash the rugs for the front room, but I didn’t take pictures of that. Anyway, just a few pictures.

Roxy, because she’s cute, and she’s not sick anymore. I think she’s abandoned the front yard, but left her sign up until I’m sure she’s in the back yard. ATM, she’s hanging out in the flowerbed beside the patio, so she could go either way.

Pipevine Swallowtail eggs, on the wooly pipevine on the fence. It’s still not a big plant, but it looks better this year than it did last year, and it’s still alive, so I’ll take it. I’m counting at least 22 eggs here; I hope that little vine can handle it! Something ate some of the cats on the Virginia Snakeroot, and whatever it was, I hope it got a good stomachache!

Penstemon ‘Husker Red’ is in full bloom, much to the delight of the bees. I almost wish it was more colourful, but it’s pretty no matter what. Also…a prolific seeder.

Other flowers are starting to choke out my Missouri Primrose, so I may have to move them, but I did still get a couple of beautiful yellow flowers. I’m not a huge fan of yellow as a rule, but these are gorgeous.

I knew we had two eggs, but Mrs. C had a surprise for me today because she laid another one. At least I hope it’s hers; I’ll have to go back and look to see whether the two on the left were the first two, and make sure the one with more white isn’t someone else’s egg. Mrs. C has enough to do; she doesn’t need to be feeding anyone else’s babies. AFAIK, the only birds we have that would do that are cowbirds, but I’m not sure whether #3 is a cowbird egg or not, so I’ll have to do some research.
