Damaged Maple

May 16, 2015

The snowstorm last weekend really did a number on the trees in our neighborhood.  Some of the older trees in the surrounding areas were completely torn apart.  The snow was heavy and wet and came down very fast.  When it melted, it left a very sad sight.

Just a few beautiful things from the yard this morning.

PEONYANT0016A couple of ants on a peony bud.  Not really a beautiful scene but just thought I’d throw it in.  I see these ants every year.  Wonder if I should leave them alone or get rid of them.  They don’t seem to be hurting the plant.
