...The Buddlejas in the flower garden are really showing their stuff. Their peak is well past, but there are still quite a few "bloom cones" left...
I know what you mean about the honey bee decline. I am planting extra plants for them and actually considering learning to keep bees. Our weather...
Beautiful variety of flowers, Netty. I could just look at those for hours on end. The Fuchia and Nigella are looking particularly attractive. I...
That sounds like it was a really good concert and you enjoyed it double. What a nice way to "do" a birthday present, Toni. Way t'go!
.....one for each BLT :wink:
The thick burgandy curtains are still closed....The conducter in the pit taps his podium for attention with the baton. ...the audence becomes...
Thanks EJ. I really like seeing them too. I guess that our weather has been a little better than yours (but not by much). I'm a bit concerned...
Boy EJ, did they evvuh! I hope that it warms up enough to kick-start yours. Toms are one of my basic crops every year, and one of yours as well....

Happy Birthday, mate! I hope that you had a good one and enjoyed the day with your friends.
Thanks alot Netty. Well, I like to try and keep on top of the weeds--sometimes it is just plain too wet to weed, but if it isn't too bad, I weed...
With the cool and moist weather we've been having lately, the bees and butterflies have been moving sluggishly and therefore easy to photograph....
