Lige siden vi fik påskeferie, har solen skinnet og det har været lunt og rart, når det ikke lige har været blæsevejr.
I går indkaldte Uglemor Ugleungerne til at hjælpe sig med at så masser af frø i haven. Efter at Uglemor havde fjernet ukrudt, gamle planter og diverse rødder fra bedene, medens Ugleungerne var i skole.
Ⓥ is for vejr = weather.
Ever since Easter holiday began, and even before, the Sun has been shining. It has been nice and warm, even if somewhat windy.Yesterday MotherOwl made the Owlets help her sow a lot of seeds after having weeded and dug 3 beds in the time the Owlets were at school.

Black eyed Susans, Swizz chard, Angelica and Echinacea (Coneflower). The straw is protecting our sole surviving artichoke. In the end, the small rest of last year's chards can be seen. The chicken have been eating them all winter.

Og her er så et billede fra i morges. Nu kan man se, hvorfor Uglemor havde så travlt med at få alle frøene i jorden. Det regner!
Jeg er ked af at jeg ikke kan bringe billeder med lyd. Så I må forestille jer en stille, stadig sommerregn, fugle der kvidrer, og af og til kører en bil forbi , nu dæmpet af regnen.

And a photo from this morning. Now you see why MotherOwl was in such a hurry to get all the seeds sown. It is raining, for the first time in 3 weeks.I'm sorry you can not have the sound side of this photo. Imagine summer rain, gently, but persistently falling, birds chirping and an occasional car passing by, its sound hushed by the falling rain and wet roads.

The garden in the Owlery, seen from MotherOwl's bedroom window. What a wonderful view in the morning.
How I love the sound and scent of rain. And your garden looks lovely. Practical and beautiful side by side.
SvarSletRain after a dry spell is a treat for all senses. I try to always mix practical and beautuiful. It becomes easier with practice.
SletGentle rain just when your garden needs it, followed by sunny days, is the best weather.
SvarSletI agree, Today is overcast, but warm. I can almost hear the seeds growing.
SletRain seems to do a garden more good than a hose watering, somehow. Different composition, maybe. Rain and warm earth will make those seeds sprout quickly, I bet. Things are so green in your garden!
SvarSletExactly. Rain from abowe is the best. Some of the green is ground elder, but after winter's grey and brow hues they are welcome. They'll be cut down later.
