Pink and Purple Fab

 


I should think there might be one more big harvest (maybe two?) of dahlias this season. And I am very happy about that!

Calling Mr. Hitchcock

 

Upon hearing quite a racket outside, we went and looked...and saw all of these crows (plus more not pictured here). Then they moved down about half a block and continued to caw. Then they all flew away. Weird!

Strike a Pose

 

This lovely towhee was bopping around the backyard--they are VERY fast and hard to photograph, but he/she seemed to be posing for me. 


I hope that it is the same bird seen above. I think this is just a crazy molt where this poor bird lost all of its face feathers at the same time; I so hope that it doesn't have some sort of disease. (I do think it's a molt--the bird looks rather bedraggled in general...)

We All Scream...

 



...for ice cream! (Since it is a federal holiday, you MUST eat it! It's a hardship, I know...)

Lounging Little Lizardo

 

A lovely lizardo lounging in the sun...look at its tail!

Super relaxed...
Kinda sleepy...
Wait...where did it go?!


There it is! Sooo teeny-tiny!
