A Walk to the Summer Meadow

 

We’ll tell you at the appointed hour: our mystery friend is named for a flower.

  



Watercolor, pencil, and ink drawing of a meadowsweet flower. Under the flower it says the scientific name Spiraea latifolia in cursive and then meadowsweet in print below that. On top of the watercolor drawing is a yellow flower crown.
 




In mountain meadows above her home, our summertime creature loves to roam.
 




A blurry dark green knitted cardigan with white buttons and a rainbow striped suspender dress draped on top of a watercolor, pencil, and ink drawing of alpine strawberries. It says alpine strawberry in print next to the drawing along with the scientific name Fragaria vesca.
 




She rolls and snacks and plays on grasses - enormous oodles; giant masses.
 




Watercolor, pencil, and ink drawing of a timothy grass and bird’s foot trefoil. Next to the drawing it says: Phleum pratense, Timothy Grass. Lotus corniculatus Bird’s Foot Trefoil, birdsfoot deervetch, eggs and bacon. There is a hint of the floral ear lining of a Hazel Village animal off to the side.
 




Some snacks are salty, bitter, sour – but honeysuckle's her favorite flower.
 




Watercolor, pencil, and ink drawing of honey suckle that says Lonicera periclymenum above it. Draped over the flower drawing is a black apron dress with 2 large pockets and a floral embroidery on the bib.
 


“Also, chickweed’s very yummy.” She’s spotted on her head and tummy.
 


Watercolor, pencil, and ink drawing of chickweed that says Stellaria media in cursive underneath. The drawing is being held by a Hazel Village animal. Part of the animal’s face is visible where you can see tan and white fabric.
 
She likes to wear the dainty gloves that fit on Clover Horse’s hooves.
 



Phoebe Fawn and the new Hazel Village animal are sitting together in a wicker basket chair. Phoebe is covering most of the animal, but you can see her tan arm and her hoof shaped embroidered gloves and floral ears. Resting on Phoebe’s arm is a watercolor drawing of crimson clover that says its scientific name, Trifolium incarnatum, in cursive.
 



Where she’s gone, her friends can tell, Because she wears a necklace bell.
 


A portrait of the bottom half of the new animal’s face. The animal is tan with 2 brown embroidered nostrils. The animal is wearing a sweater, apron dress, and cowbell. Inside the pocket of the dress is the watercolor drawing of cowslip that says primula veris in cursive below the drawing.
 

It’s time for us to tell you how Our friend, named PRIMROSE, is a COW!⁠

 
Hazel Village animal Primrose Cow is sitting on a bench wearing her rainbow dress and next to a watercolor drawing of Evening Primrose that has the scientific name Oenothera biennis underneath it.
