Do mulberries taste better than maggots?
1 Vines

The pad, pad, pad of joggers going past.
The birds; a soft twitter.
The turtles have moved elsewhere, a flash of red, a cardinal.
Grape vines and other vines, the five fingered leaves of Virginia creeper vines 30 feet up in an ash tree.
Wisps of clouds moving east.

2 Mulberries

Earlier, I observed the waxy nodding petals of the yucca. Ate some mulberries, both black and white. The white ones look like maggots (squish like them too) until they turn lavender and wonderfully ripe. They're not as flavorful as the black ones (red when ripening) nor do they stain as bad. I had to be careful as the limber limbs were bent down by the vines. Grapes are not a problem, but poison ivy is.

3 Mosquitoes

The sky is beautiful @ 8:30, but the mosquitoes are searching for blood ... time to move on.
