Tallulah-Palooza Friday

 I feel as if we haven't had a Tallulah Mae photo in quite a while...here she is in 2007.

Open, Closed

 

This mockingbird was just going and going and going...they are amazing birds.

Wrensday

Little Bewick's wren bopping about...

Balancing

 

Nice

 

Always nice to get a winter sunset in the summer...

Strawberry Moon

 

Finally, no clouds so that we can see the first full moon of the summer!

Some Signs

 

Late Peonies

 

These are more than likely the last peonies of the season...a very nice bunch, too!

Four Orioles Hop Into a Fountain...

 

We have a most excellent crop o' orioles this year!

Monday's Harvest

 

Tiny Bather

 

Spotty and Stripey

 

Petunias!

Also, random hearts here...

Redhead

 This male house finch has some of the most vibrant red coloring I've seen...he's a real beauty!

Beaded

 Current sweet pea sitch...

Heavy Load

 

This bee girl's pollen pants are LOADED! Amazing to see... busy busy bee.

(Do)Nuts to You!

 Today was National Donut Day; we did not have any, but perhaps we can rectify that oversight tomorrow...

Today's Harvest

 

A Couple

 

Wow

 

These amazing hibiscus flowers made me stop my car and take their photo! 

So Beautiful, So Comical

Every year, the orioles do not disappoint. They are such elegant birds, but these young ones are quite hilarious: there are clearly at least two siblings who bicker and chase each other. This one is striking a few poses (and looking a bit goofy/awkward). I love them!
