Thursday.....

If you fill your feeder, they will come. I noticed the absence of hummers and checked things out.  It was bone dry. I was so surprised to see they could have emptied it so quickly. The scene you see in early evening that rain clouds were moving around.

I looked out and in less than an hour they were back.  I even had a hummingbird war going on out there.

I moved my pot of agapanthis to the front of the house. It needed to fill in a little from being inside all winter.It filled in and looked more healthy after sitting out on my back patio.  It isn't any big deal other yshn its a nice green spot on the front porch step. I have two of them but I didn't bring the second one. The "knock out roses" are starting to bloom again.

I keep taking random shots of my begonias and the photos still do not do the plant justice. I think it ts the fault of the transparency of the petals that the camera can not pick up.

I was surprised to see a late bloom on this plant. I am not sure why it is late but I guess it could be a late starting new sprout. Hydrangea is the name now that I recall.

I worked for about an hour at the old place today.  I needed to trim out more unwanted starts of mulberry trees and other kinds.  I drove my truck right up the sidewalk into the yard next to the area. I was pretty exhausted as I was working in the sun and loading the branches was never ending. I found that I had the truck full of branches and I needed reserve energy to unload the truck at the towns branch wagons.  I always have a couple people who want to stop and catch up on things. The guy who also lives in Florida is going to leave Iowa as soon as his sister better from a broken leg. He is always here for the Iowa State Fair. The other person talks travel to their summer Utah home.  She has two daughters that I had in school 20 years ago and the actually live in suburbs near me.

Small towns do stay small and I visited twice this week. Thanks for stopping by today.
