Walking Iten's Acres: Extraordinary April 4, 2013

It's amazing what three days of sun and slowly warming temperatures can do for the Acres! More crocus blooming, more dwarf iris, primrose, wood hyacinth (can their big brothers be far behind), more Lenten rose, the beginning of the daffodils. Even the goldfinch are starting to bloom. And the wild flowers are on their way beginning with the spring beauties. The joy of wild flowers everywhere, blooming wherever they please, is that old truth that they reinforce: "There is nothing more extraordinary as the ordinary."
