Things with wings

 Juvenile ruby-throated hummingbird

 It must have been raised here!

 Is this mom? Could be

 Junior diving into the nectar

 Mm mm good!

 Yep, that's my boy

 

 I figure they nest in Mr. Ken's Cypress tree

Look who came to visit today!

 A bee-u-t-ful female Monarch!

 She loved our French Dwarf marigolds :-)

 Such a patient model, too

So glad she stopped by!

Also saw this little Cabbage White

And of course the busy Bumble

Our weather has turned clear and cool...Oktoberfest weather!

These clouds quickly flew off to the east

 Allowing us to enjoy this splendid waxing moon!
