Sunny weekend

Not much to report for this past weekend. The weather was beautiful and I watered the garden on Saturday. The peas will need frame extensions soon for climbing. The iris are beginning to put up flower stalks, ants are working on the peonies, yellow celandine and forget-me-nots are flowering, quince and forsythia flowers have past and ornamental cherries and apple flowers are fading.

A pair of robins are nesting on the rain gutter and there are three eggs. Hopefully, this nest will avoid detection by the blue jays.

Update 5/14: There are actually a few quince flowers still blooming, but the major bloom is past.
