Down on the farm

Actually, it's not a farm...just our little yard

 

But we have 'maters!

 

And Marigolds

 

 Zinnias and Verbena

 Pinky the Pet Geranium, being threatened by Cypress Vine

A few more daylilies, fixin' to bloom

 

One of the last of Ellen's Double Orange Daylilies

And LOTS of birds!

 Young Grackle, trying to get along with a host of House Sparrows

 Dove and Sparrow, observing rules of personal space

This dove? Not so much...just crashed the party!

 Juvenile Robin, rebelling against the notion of self-feeding!

 Pop giving Junior a talking-to, and a bit of worm...

 This fellow knows how to eat

 And so does this one!

 This lady enjoys Pink in the evening...I guess she had Purple for lunch

And the swifts patrol constantly overhead, thinning out the insects

This cute little Bumble steals a snack

And in the evening, we take delight in seeing the occasional little toad coming out.

Life is good out back!
