Athena *knows* there are birds out there. She can hear them taunting her.

You have inspired me to create my own mini arrangements celebrating found flowers and, frankly, beautiful weeds
A mini-bouquet of pink and white flowers (with a yellow buttercup) in a cobalt blue bottle Yellow Black-eyed Susan's and white spike hosta flowers in a small clear glass bottle. Dried wild rose hips peek out of the arrangement echoing the "eyes" of the Black-eyed Susans

It is hot, hot, hot, in central Maine today. The flower bed is abloom, although I am learning that they are mostly introduced species.
As my son says: All the plants native to Maine have seasonal affective disorder and can't get up the energy to be joyful even in the summer.

Athena suspects you are up to no good and will need to keep a close watch over you.

A black and white tuxedo cat stares intently at the camera. The color of the cat's eyes match the color of the wall she is peeking around. The cat clearly suspects that you are up to no good.
