This area of the garden starts to
come into bloom in early June.
We recently began redesigning the section by the archway.
Many of the mature plants will have to be replaced over the next few years.Sometimes we need to be cruel to be kind. 

As Spring becomes Summer the new born must learn to fend for themselves.

These next four photographs show the first nervous minutes away from the nest flying solo.

  

At least food isn't a problem.

Keeping watch is important too.

Good view from here!
