LATELY STRANGE
Strange things I have seen of late:
My son's collarbone overlapping, pre-surgery
A skein of silent geese
A giant pileated woodpecker on the suet feeder: it's been very cold and snowy. I suspect food has been scarce
I shall add to this as the need arises.
What is so strange about this, I can hear you muttering...Surely that's a garden variety geranium. Yes, indeed, it is. But this is a geranium which was given to me at the end of last season; it sat in the car and broiled, it was left neglected under a pine tree and exposed to frost. It was tucked on a windowsill in the basement and forgotten. I have watered it once or twice over the winter, thinking what dwarfed leaves it had, and then bingo! One day last week I went down to do some long overdue laundry and there it was in full flower! I have a lot of respect for this flower.
