Bug's Bloomers

Summer has come to Ohio, at long last, and our bloomers are going wild!

 Miniature rose bush

 Yarrow
 Verbena
 Petunias

 Daisies!


 Pinky!
 Our pet geranium
Heather loves her
 Easter lilies, resurrected!


 Impatiens
 Lavender Menace in all its glory!
 Day lilies coming on!
And our lovely little Sun Sugar tomatoes...yum!
It is warm and humid, and the corn is rocketing skyward in our neck of the woods. The weather has played hob with our internet, but we are back now...and very glad to be able to share our pics with you!

One of those days...

Some days you just roll out of bed and the world explodes around you! That need not be a bad thing...
 This year's hanging basket...I call it the lavender menace ;-)
 It just needed some love...and plant food...and water!
 Everything got watered today.
 Momma Red-bellied woodpecker!
 Filling up her beak, time and again...
 Then flying off to feed her young one!
As I mentioned, we had some rain today
 But then the skies broke open and the sun hit just right, 
 And ROY G BIV appeared!!!
 And then this sweet little Downy came
Another female...gathering food for her young one? Hope, hope.
T'is a silly place, this Camelot, where squirrels play the Stand-up Bass...
