Lush place! And full of things to observe. Great pictures.
The birds were really showing off today, posing for you.
And the trees and shrubs, along with the flowers, were cooperating too.
One of the flowering shrubs in the middle looks a lot like my oak-leaf hydrangeas. They are beautiful.
The whole thread is a treat for my eyes!!
That's a flowering white dogwood, native to Pennsylvania. The flowering of the trees and shrubs is winding down. Soon the summer foliage will make it more difficult to find the birds.
