Warm temperatures and I don't get along.  I managed to get some shrubs planted in the backyard while it was still cool outside.  When the sun was at its highest, I was hibernating inside with a good book until it began cooling off again.

While I was outside during the day, I noticed that the tree swallows had taken up residence in the old tree trunk in my backyard.  The red wing blackbirds fed at the sunflower seed feeders.  

I planted some Virginia creeper vines against a fence.  While I was digging the holes, I noticed that the birds had hidden sunflower seeds in a crack in the fence post.  Silly birds.

I just came inside from putting my bedding plants into the garage.  The overnight temperatures are still too cold to have the plants outside.  While I was out there, the frogs serenaded me from the forest behind the yard.  The shorebirds were calling from the lake across the road.  

I looked up to the cloudless evening sky and saw an almost full moon peeking through the tree branches.  It's going to be a beautiful night.
