My Bad.....

So Fenway and I walked the bike path again yesterday.....and suddenly summer is here. We enjoyed about a two-day spring, but now Port boasts warmer days. We noticed additional wildflowers along our way.  A happy daisy.

Bunches of buttercups and some common fleabane. Followed by beautiful smooth hydrangea bushes in bloom.

 

I spotted my first beautiful big tiger swallowtail flitting down the path in front of me before disappearing into the brush.

And then, remembering something that popped up on the internet last week I realized that I wasn't enjoying flocks of phlox....these pink/white/light purple beauties coating the side of the path and the hill were Dame's Rocket. Darn....an invasive weed. Now if I was working with a manicured flower garden I would pull them.....but this is "open space" and they look pretty. So I'll leave them alone and wait for the phlox that will bloom later in the summer.
