I read that the migration of the hummingbird has begun in our area. I have lost track of how many I have coming to the feeders but they do keep fighting one another.
This one seemed to be a young one. It sat and enjoyed the stand and didn't eat. I do have shots of him looking around at all that was going on at the other feeder.
Out there my sunflower is putting out lots of blooms. It was late to germinate so it is the only one that looks good. All my earlier sunflowers are looking dead.
Another shot from a bedroom window isn't such a great shot. I stalk the bedroom window to watch for the goldfinches that fly over and pick seeds from the older flower. They fly in so quickly and grab a seed and then they are just gone. At least we do get to see them.
Out front the "knock out" roses are putting out a few fresh blooms. They could be deadheaded if I had the energy to do so.
Also on the front step the pathetic flower box from the grocery store is putting out one white petunia. The angel is not happy looking at the back of the pot.
I didn't find it in time to get it in the right sequence with this shot. The dead or dying sunflowers are becoming covered with the morning glories. The birds still sit in the area and get seeds.
My newest hosta is doing better now that I have pulled out all the creeping phlox that was choking in out. When shopping for thes I had to look through everything on the shelves to finally find one that I didn't have in my collection. I divided this one to have two plantings.
We have had good weather today. I was out and about in the morning but I didn't do any garden work today. I watched the neighbor mow is yard on a riding lawn mower. The yard actually is too small for him to use a rider but he can pull it off. He just has to drive around very slow.
Thanks for stopping by today.
