Fairy Land

 I was outside last night enjoying the perfumed air and the smoky sunset. With the lilacs and crab apple trees and apple tree in bloom the smell is intoxicating. Pink and white flower petals blanket the grass. Some petals  fall  into the chicken water. A great crested fly catcher is calling back and forth.  A red squirrel scolds me from the oak  tree. A ruby throated  hummingbird flies by. Is it a hummingbird or a fairy? With all these pink and white blossoms scenting the air it must be a fairy because  this scene sure looks like fairyland to me.
