Smell of Summer

Last week the fragrance of the flowering honeysuckle and privet was like a heavy perfume in the air. This week the aroma of early summer is nearly gone.

This afternoon while walking the dogs past the daisy pond, I photographed some of the Waxleaf privet (Ligustrum lucidum) and Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) flowers - wish I could document the scent of their ivory and yellow bouquet.
