Bluebird

All of the round geranium pots have been cleaned and now am working on the long planters.  It reached 50 degrees today but there could be a frost tonight and again tomorrow night.  I checked on the peonies.  They are up too high to be covered so they are on their own.

I usually wait until I see a tree swallow before putting up the bird houses but, as I said, my Monthly-To-Do said it should be done in April.  The day after I shut up the houses I did have bluebirds scoping out one house.  I hadn't seen them before so thought maybe the swallows were here too and I hadn't yet seen them.  There still aren't any swallows but I did hear a thrasher 'singing'.  Still waiting for the bobolinks.
