I have to go pick some elderberries off the bushes I've been cultivating since finding them on the property.. I'll clean the bugs off then create ice tubs with them in there.. Elderberries are super duper fruit!

Keep the bugs!! 🐛 🐞
 
Found two nests while harvesting the berries.. couldn't see inside the first one, but in the second patch of berries I saw a young cardinal fly down out of the next bush over, and sure enough there were eggs in it!

I found the first elderberry bush buried under kudzu, vines, and brambles.. the place was over grown with 'stuff' when I bought it.. first year I found a 20 x 25 foot dog pen of 6 ft chain linked fence... and the first elderberry patch.. second year I found native poinsettia plants. There's trumpet vine growing up 500 year old oak trees, and various other plants I haven't identified.. one is a small rapidly growing vine that reminds me of ferns but has tiny red flowers.

Hmm.. interesting about that fern plant. Can you post a pic when you get a chance? I WISH I had native poinsettia. Well, I do. The ugly all green weed looking one :barnie
