6ºC (42ºF) this morning and mist was coming off the pond. It did get to 25ºC (77ºF) in the afternoon.

 Cold and windy for two days, but at least we had some much needed rain yesterday.

 The canola is beginning to bloom.

 June home photo.

 Morning sky.

We saw a large Leopard Frog in the pond today.

Sunset.

 We rarely get 9 eggs in a day (we have 9 laying hens), so it is nice when we do. We usually get 7 a day.

Getting ready to clean out the chicks' cage, of course Miss Maggie had to jump in the box for the chicks.

 Now all the plants are planted!

 They are so curious - trying to take a picture and they all have to run over to see what is happening.

 Still smoke haze around (the canola is growing well too).

 I guess GingerSnap! was hot outside because he came in and flopped on the cool floor.

 Day old tiny fluff balls.

 Riding in the tiny Japanese yard truck is one of her favourite things (she even has a little platform for the passenger seat).

 Luckily Molly doesn't actually bite when she plays with the cats.

 It seemed like a fall day today - cold and windy. More great clouds though.

 Today we had some much needed rain, and it looks like more is on the way.

 Forgot to take a May home photo, so this will have to do.

The sweetest hen.

 

 

Today I participated in the Global Running Day Challenge, and ran 5km for the first time in a while (with Apple Fitness on my watch I get a virtual "award").

All the weather this evening.

 

 There is a large muskrat living in the pond (it was very smoky this morning).

 Still geese flying north.
