White Dove.

I was walking around outside today, observing my Chinese tree peonies for action, and I spotted a white dove on our lawn! 0_o I wonder if it was released at St. Bridget's? It seemed pretty tame. Pretty pretty... o_o

As far as tree peony action goes, we'll be getting leaves, that's for sure. We may also get one flower. It's too bad our cherry tree doesn't bloom until May--we could have our own cherry-blossom viewing party but it'll be late. We have a speeeecial double-flowered cherry tree and it's supposed to be good that it blooms late, so the buds won't be killed by a late frost, but sometimes I wish it would bloom at the same time as everybody else's. Right now it's a spindly thing. I planted it 3 years ago.
