Drama in the skies.

Huge white cloud formations.

The skies in Maine can be very dramatic. This was just a crazy cloud formation. What was going on up there?

Storm moving across Penobscot Bay.

But this was a giant storm cloud that moved quickly across the bay, pounding us with a swift douse of heavy rain.

The storm cloud passed quickly so the sun could come out.

Sunshine wasn’t far behind.

Gray is beautiful.

Boats reflected in Maine gray day.

Some call it June gloom. If you’re in an area near a large body of water, you’ll often experience this soggy, gray shift from spring into summer.

Lucky Maine is just as beautiful in neutral tones, as in brilliant ones.

Blue spring flower.

Especially when framed in silvery mist.

The unfurling continues.

Blue spring flower.

German Iris bud in Maine spring garden.

New Iris.

Ants enjoying the new peony bud.

The myth about the symbiotic relationship between the peony and the ant is not true. The peony does not depend on the ant to bloom. The ant is merely feasting on the sweet nectar served up by the gracious peony. Go to Leslie Land’s blog to learn more about peonies.

If you look closely, you’ll see the ants on other flowers as well.
