Unexepcted garden excitement

So, the most exciting garden thing that has ever happened in our garden... well, it happened! In our garden! And it's only going to get more exciting from here on out. That? in the picture? Next to our house, nestled in amongst the daylilies? Would be a duck, in a nest, sitting on eggs. We'll have to do some research on proper distance-caring for a duck, and maybe we can somehow help her and her eventual ducklings across the two busy streets to the modest pond nearby. But how fun - a nesting mama and (hopefully) little ducklings in our yard!



Other garden happenings pale in comparison, but here they are: the beebalm is going wild, various things I've forgotten the names of are growing and budding and blooming, and the oregano has staged a very vigorous comeback.
