Another hidden camellia blossom.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
My camellia is ready to bloom. It’s just waiting for a little more sun and warmth! And waiting and waiting and waiting!
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
Now three blooms have opened on my camellia. All the other buds are waiting. The three that have opened are on the house side or deep in the greenery. It must be a little warmer and more protected there.

I wandered downtown in the sun a few days ago and thought Galatea does not look cold at all. The sun did give some warmth. This is the Haller Fountain in Port Townsend.
Our Anna’s hummingbirds can overwinter. Tough little creatures and certainly they are not afraid of bigger birds. Meanwhile any sun makes it clear that I should do some spring window washing! This bush is outside my writing window, with the feeder stuck to the window. The hummers will guard it.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: apricity.
My feelings are not that complicated now
I feel sorry for your need to be quite cruel
Sorry and occasionally wonder how
You justify acting like a stubborn mule
a distillation of your treatment is quite clear
you choose to keep the people you control
promises mean nothing when you feel fear
Telling yourself we’re evil takes a toll
You feel free and safe when you axe another friend
You feel that all your problems are at bay
A new need immediately builds again
Who will be the next victim of the day?
Your world shrinks every day you live
A stone cold heart forgetting how to give.
Sonnet 14

Isn’t it an amazing tree? Complicated and yet forming an overall beautiful shape.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: complicated.
Let’s see: sand. We have lots of sand, but the beach here is mostly cold. The water temperature is 45 degrees F today. It ranges from 45-55 here over the year. Wetsuit, drysuit or well, my daughter and her friends would go in. Brrrrr.
I love walking the beaches here though. We can walk 6 miles from North Beach to Cape George if we time the tides right. Marrowstone Island has miles of mostly deserted beach as well. Sand and agates and rocks and eagles and great blue herons and coyotes and sea lions in the water.
Not everyone likes sand though. Here is an example:
And while we are at it, another sea ditty and a favorite: The Crabby Song. I used to sing it at work under my breath. Very professional, right?
They always look unlikely in trees, though they are comfortable.
