Upper Peninsula, Michigan.
A robin chose to build a nest by the front door of the house in Ewen. We didn't use that door at all, so she stayed undisturbed, but it gave me a "bird's eye" view to the growth of her babies.

| Jack in the Pulpit. I may look into finding some of the corms to plant in the boggier areas of my backyard at the base of the mountain. It is toxic to humans and dogs, so I will need to fence the area off if I get a puppy at some point in the future. Rabbits and deer avoid it, but birds can eat the red berries that it will produce after flowering. |

| Pink Lady Slipper Orchid and Yellow Trout Lily. I already have some of the lilies in the backyard that are growing in the boggy area (not many tho) and would love to be able to get some of the Pink Ladies to grow there as well. Gardening goals! |

| This was a robin that had gotten trapped in a roll of chicken wire the mom decided to nest in. I heard his cries and got him freed without any harm before setting him in a tree where mom could find and feed. |
Wishing you wonderful memories of happy discoveries ... Hugs, Ci💚
I really like your selections this week. How wonderful you were able to rescue the bird.
