Busy Sunday
Good evening all. This weekend was very busy for me. I spent sunday cutting overhanging live oak limbs, that were threatening to cut all sun from my roses.
Now my roses will get plenty of sun, bush up and thrive again. Then i tackled removing the oak limbs from over the shed and almost disturbed this visitor. Yeah, you got it a male eastern tiger swallowtail. It took a long time to find this guy on the net. He seems to really like penta's and giant zinnia's.
It trully was a beautiful sunday and coincidentally, as I was sitting on the porch just watching the yard. A tiny movement caught my eye. It was my resident humming bird. Still moving way too fast for me to get a photo. But it was a very beautiful sight. Happy gardening ya'll, every day in the garden in trully a blessing.

The eastern tiger swallowtail is an absolute beauty. I always get so excited when I spot one in my yard. Of course nothing gets me quite as excited as spotting a hummingbird!

Hi Anna, Thank you for visiting my blog. Gardening is a blessing isn't it? We're getting a lot of heat this week so hopefully my plants will all survive.
ReplyDeleteI love your Pentas. They are not winter hardy here so I rarely grow them but they're just gorgeous.
