This little Allen's hummingbird was enjoying that succulent flower. I love how you can see the pollen on its beak...

Random Heart: Cacti Edition
(This is slightly cheating as these cacti seem to often have a paddle shaped like this...but it's still a heart!)

Lovely Lavatera
Isn't this gorgeous? While it looks a lot like a hibiscus, it is in fact a rose mallow (lavatera). The bees love it! (Not mine...in a friend's garden.)

Lizardo in a Box
Imagine my surprise when I sailed into the bathroom and saw this long lizardo. I might have let out a tiny scream--it has such a long tail that it looks a bit like a snake out of the corner of one's eye...
I did manage to drop this plastic shoebox over it--I was very afraid of catching its tail but fortunately did not--and then slid a piece of cardboard underneath and RAN outside with it. All's well that end's well! We love our lizardos, but they cannot come inside the house...it's the rule!
