not even sure you can see them too well but the bigger white birds where the iddy biddy ones from the last post. The Rhode Island Red hens are about the same size here as the meat birds were when we got them. It is easy to see how fast they grow.
We have had soo much rain the past week that the garden hasn't done a lot of growing. We need more sun. Today is nice and the next couple. The next update will probably show more progress.

My grandson will be here next week, so maybe we'll work on a little weeding expecially in the perennial bed and then I'll post some pictures of flowers. The peonies are blooming and iris and columbine too. I'm just too ashamed on the condition of the beds to post pictures just yet. I went down on Tuesday and did a little work, but they're in bad shape because of neglect. The flowers bloom reqardless of my lack of attention, but they look a lot prettier if I spend some time there weeding and fussing over them.
I'll write more later.
Have a wonderful weekend!
