Wee Flower

The smallest flower is a thought, a life answering to some feature of the Great Whole, of whom they have a persistent intuition.
- Honore De Balzac

Dandelion

The First Dandelion

Simple and fresh and fair from winter’s close emerging,

As if no artifice of fashion, business, politics, had ever been,

Forth from its sunny nook of shelter’d grass–innocent, golden, calm as the dawn,

The spring’s first dandelion shows its trustful face.

American Robin

Pat — Wed, 01 May 2013 21:45:17 +0000

From All About Birds
An American Robin can produce three successful broods in one year. On average, though, only 40 percent of nests successfully produce young. Only 25 percent of those fledged young survive to November. From that point on, about half of the robins alive in any year will make it to the next. Despite the fact that a lucky robin can live to be 14 years old, the entire population turns over on average every six years.
