As always, marvelous photos of hard to photograph birds and bugs! I love to see your posts, so please, please keep them coming!
Happy you had such a nice vacation, and that you are home now and can rest up--after dealing with the tomatoes!
Donna, what a brilliant, and attractive, idea! We have patio doors off the kitchen and off the dining room, and occasionally a bird will hit those...
Happy Tuesday everyone! Husband is off to get mulch for the fruit trees. We added compost around them this morning, so we can mulch the heck out...
Well done (as usual) Jerry!
Netty, I've been on a couple of garden tours that were more like a forced march with someone up front talking, but those of us in the middle and...
