Backyard Springtime Nature in New Jersey.

My phone died last week, and won’t have internet access at home for a month. So I will upload images when I find WiFi hotspots that don’t block me for transferring too much data. This is a set of poppies from my wildflower patch before the deer and rabbits got hungry. I also have several time-lapsed videos of the poppies opening which I will post later. Individual images in the slide show can be viewed here.
