Another glorious sunny day here today. After all the rain, the flowers are super-sized and the gardens are lush. Our roses in front are in full bloom, while our cottage roses in back are just budding, but there will be a lot of them in bloom very soon. Our single rhododendron bush is huge this year with saucer-sized clusters of pinky-purple flowers. While walking around and taking in all the floral sights, a melodic bird followed me from place to place. Surprisingly, I was able to take a fairly clear photo when the bird was in a branch of our peach tree. I discovered it was a female rose-breasted grosbeak. We don't see many grosbeaks, and it was fun to have one tag around with me!
