May Plant Update

Ahhhhhhh, May. What a month for plant and animal observations! Here in Asbury Park, it was a very green month, mild, rainy and fresh. We didn’t travel too much this month, we didn’t get to the beach, or local parks often. Most of our observations were around our neighborhood and our own back yard.

I didn’t see too many dandelions this month, but I did see some dandy fluffs.

In the beginning of the month, the leaves were just budding out. By the end of the month, these trees were full!

The only thing better than a fresh rose is one with rain droplets.
