Tree Skies #SkywatchFriday

As summer moves spring aside here in upstate New York (and all through the Northern Hemisphere), the flowering trees are almost done.  And the rain has stopped, at least for now. replaced by heat.

Shall we look at skies and trees both, today?  It's so wonderful to see blue skies at last.

There are the catalpas. They are beatiful whether sunset is approaching...

...or the sun is still shining.

And then there is the basswood, or linden.  It has a sweet scent, and small, powerful blooms. Call this a linden sky.

Call this beauty.

The Korean lilacs are on their way out, with their sweet fragrance.  Let's say "goodbye, see you next year".  Even if the sky is barely visible.

Goodbye spring. Happy first Skywatch day of summer.

    I love the smells and sights of summer, but the flying cottonwood is killing me. Wish there were no downside.
