I finally got my new plants in the new planter and in my brass planters.




The 2 ladies showed up to check them out.They have been in my yard almost all evening I was so happy to just sit and watch them nose around and eat grasshoppers and bugs.





I hope you can see the colorful top knot on her head as the sunshine hit it.





They seem to get along so good.





I will stop taking pictures of them now .I did get them alot closer this time.

The planters look lovely, but the peacocks are even lovelier! Have they decided to live with you now? I'm not fed up with watching them, so don't stop photographing them on my account.

Your planters look soooo good now they are planted up Glenda. Your 'ladies' definately seem to have given them their seal of approval. Very Happy

The planters look spiffing Glenda. Great job. Have you given "the ladies" names yet?

They are very pretty! Your flowers look wonderful in your new planters. I'm glad you were able to get a few good pictures of the peacocks too, they're quite pretty.

They just visit and then head home at dusk.I don't have near the amount of grasshoppers in my yard now.I neve thought of naming them as I felt like Tina has named them.I'll have to ask.
They hang around with the horses in back of my house but come to my house to get the grasshoppers.
