Summertime Beauty

So where is the summer going? It is happening so fast, I can barely keep up with it! I love being outside in my yard, enjoying nauture and the gardens. I really miss blogging and keeping this updated, but soon summer will be gone and there will be time to blog then.
I have the pleasure of a hummingbird again this year. They are one of God's amazing creatures. I am totally mesmerized by these little guys. Here is a shot of one enjoying my Bee Balm :-)

and the baby birds are so cute around the yard and the bird baths. This bird bath attracts the most action in the yard, we added some small river rocks in it to make it more shallow and accessable to more birds. They all love it but I think the Robins love it the most. They are so much fun to watch shakin and shimming and just getting cool! Here is one of the young ones

Let's not forget that I have a multitude of feeders and go through hundreds of pounds of seed a year. I tend to by it in 50 lb bags. So always happy when my Cardnials come to visit. I actually have been getting a Bluejay(no photo yet though!) he is attracted to the peanuts I got for him.

I love that my hens and chicks flowered this year, I have never had one flower and it's still blooming too :-)

And just so everyone knows I have gone off the deep end... Trix Swirls not just for kids! lol I have been snacking on these colorful bites... great color combos for summertime huh?

I found a romance author Barbara Freethy I like. Read these books, Suddenly Summer, On Shadow Beach and In Shelter Cove. They all represent a small coastal town called Angels Bay and feature some of the same characters.. Good Summertime reads....

Still creating a bit not much focus on it right now, but keeping eye out for ideas and need to get photos (recent ones) printed out.. Will create as summer rolls on and post.

I really need some vacation down time, and a road trip... hopefully I can get Kerry interested in checking somethings out next month.. as June is about done.

Until next time!
