It's an ill wind that blows no good.
True! We have had horrid wind all day, an ill wind indeed, but when I went out to gather bunny greens there was an abundance of poplar twigs with leaves and also willow whips and a couple of large limbs. I gathered up the poplar and the bunnies are feasting tonight, plus I have lots to dry for winter. I'll be gathering and bundling willow in the morning, unless it is raining too hard. Both these trees are difficult to harvest from because most of the branches are out of reach... so the wind was a helper today.
