More and more critters are around as the field grass becomes tall and the apple blossoms begin to fall off of the trees. The ferns seem to grow a foot a day. We're hoping to get out on the river this weekend to kayak as the recent rains have made for good water level.
This is a woodchuck/groundhog that Chena and Sulatna warned into a tree the other day.
The apple tree is one that only blossoms this beautifully about every three years. It's an old tree and has the best apples, almost like a transparent. She's in all of her glory this year. Two of the three new apple trees made it through the winter as well. We have about 20 apple trees throughout.
Had a medium sized pine snake in the yard yesterday, very unfazed by the dogs skirting it. Hopefully it's after my red ant population.
In a few days I'll plant my seedlings , hoping to not get an early June frost. This year I have pumpkins, the usual sunflowers and native Alaskan wildflowers, including fireweed.
