Spring comes slowly to the Palouse, or so it seems to me sometimes. This year's spring has been a wet one. The plants and garden are happier for it but I am ready for some warmer weather. One sure sign of spring is the birds flying about with scraps of grasses and such in their beaks. Their industriousness has resulted in many nests around our place. Some of the nests are already empty. Young robins are hopping about everywhere now. Some nests are still noisy with demanding little ones. Some, like this house finch's nest in my fuschia basket, are still quietly awaiting the hatchlings. And I quietly wait, too.
What a great picture. Can't wait to see more of your garden and the progress on the prairie. I am very excited to experience Tuscany on the Palouse with you. Your chosen title sounds like we might get some, "What's cooking in the kitchen of Tuscany on the Palouse" as well. Just hoping. Christina
