The rhododendrons in Chetzemoka Park are getting ready. Happy March Equinox! Our local Rhody Parade is in May, but the buds are getting ready.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
Rhody ready

Golden sun
Happy Equinox! Here the early morning sun turns everything golden. I think the bird in the tree is enjoying the early sun too.
Taken on Marrowstone Island, Washington, last year.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: golden.
Ready
We were set up and ready for the memorial yesterday. Chairs and seating areas and pictures and flowers and food.
It was lovely.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: memorial.
More blooms
Opening
Chetzemoka Park again and the second time there the flowers have grown and opened.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
Oak leaves
From January 2, 2022, oak leaves all over the ground in Rock Creek Park, Maryland.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: oak.
Undulating ungulates
I wrote a poem titled alphabeasts quite a while ago.
The letters u, v, w, x are here:
Undulating ungulates
veer vivaciously
wondering why whales
xerox xylophones
It turns out that whales and orcas and dolphins are ungulates, along with hoofed mammals. That is a surprise to me. Amazing what I learn regarding the Ragtag Daily Prompt.
Today the prompt is ungulate.
Receding
I am getting ready for a memorial. Funny how each loss makes you think of others.
When people are gone, they recede into a fog.
There may be certain things you remember.
Memories slowly blur.
Munched
From Chetzemoka Park again, another early spring flower, but Simone has been munching the rhododendron leaves, all of them. This must be why our healthy rhodys are six feet tall.
For Ceeβs Flower of the Day.
Chiton friends
The tide was way out when I went to the beach the other day. I don’t know if the snails and barnacles are friends or foes of the chiton or who gets eaten.
And lots of birds were very happy with the tides so far out.
