Overcast

The sky is dull gray, the air damp and chilly. It’s almost as if our lost winter has found its way home, at last, and means to stay a while. Except, there are all these flowers…

The robin doesn’t appear to be worried, though she is sticking close to the nest. Perhaps I’ll follow her lead.

      Thank you! I really can’t claim any credit for the roses, because they don’t like me very much. They tend to wither if I stand too close to them. This one needed several hours to recover from having its picture taken…

    Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. And a precious capture of the robin! I am viewing on May day–which was overcast until your post colored it much brighter!

      I’m a bit worried about the robin. She wasn’t on the nest when I checked last night, and the nest was either still empty or empty again when I checked this morning. Hopefully, I just missed her…

    I love the overcast photo. It has a timeless feeling to it, and I hear music emerging from the clouds.

    Looks like a good day to stay home, curl up, and do some reading, writing, and napping. 🙂

      I’ve been working on a manuscript most of the afternoon, and now I am definitely ready for a book and a nap!

    Those flowers are lovely. The pansy is gorgeous.
