One of the things I love about summer is all the wonderful things with wings that come and visit my little yard…
Like these entwined White Cabbage butterflies who took a wee break on the raspberries.
The moths are welcome to stay as long as they stay out of the house and out of my yarn!
Our tree out front is a Bass Wood and it’s blooming. It’s full of these little flowers and the bees are just loving it.
There’s always a bumbler or two.
The finches are still stopping by to check in on us.
And this group of characters is always hanging about!
There’s no doubt about it, summer flies in our corner of the the world!
I always get a little thrill when a cardinal shows up at the feeder.

You have the most awesome photographs! My cats have been entertained by a lizard on the patio in addition to the birds.

I’ve never seen a cardinal other than in photos. It would be exciting to see one in the yard.

So beautiful! I am sitting in my backyard now, and the humming of bees is an everpresent drone in my ears 🙂

The birds and the queue of birds is so wonderful-it would be great to sit and watch for hours!

We have a serious lack of bees in our garden this summer; it’s rather alarming! Neighbor’s claim that they haven’t noticed any reduction in bees, but I swear that I haven’t seen ONE!
