Bee-Buzz Haiku
Your wings are not blue
While others sing more sweetly
You just say "Beee-buzzzz!"

Haiku for a Pre-dawn Grosbeak
Last day of summer
"Eek" like rubber sole on wood
Willow bough your stage
"Eek" like rubber sole on wood
Willow bough your stage
Skywatch Friday Haiku
Pink curtain of night
blue-black waters lapping, hide
things beautiful, strange

Haiku for Spring Beauties
Tiny white flower
like snow on a sunny day
spring won't be denied
like snow on a sunny day
spring won't be denied
These images were taken on Easter Sunday at Camp Tupper, a park in Marietta, Ohio. The hill in this last image is ceremonial mound called the Quadranaou, built by the Hopewell Indians sometime between 100 B.C and 900 A.D. Growing up in Marietta, we kids in the neighborhood surrounding Camp Tupper called it the turtle mound because it was vaguely turtle shaped. It got the name Camp Tupper during the Civil War when Union soldiers used this park and Sacra Via nearby as camping and parade grounds.
Every April, the spring beauties carpet Camp Tupper—a reminder that spring is here and soon the trees will be full of migrant birds and the air full of their songs.
