#54 - Billy Gene's Jumbo Shrimp

 Oh, my love
My darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
 
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me

GREAT SPRING

We've not had the best wildflower year since 2010.  The September rains set the Bluebonnets and the Green Thread.  Also high grass that we will pay for later when they dry and create grassfire conditions.

Ranch House entry





Black-chinned Hummingbirds
 Blue Bonnets
New ranch butterfly - Mournful Duskywing


So many Nashville Warblers this year
A White-throated Sparrow remained all winter and into spring
 

Painted Bunting 2 days late.
