The Blue Jays have their babies with them all over the place


It has been a hot few days. The birds looked stressed.

He felt better after a soak. I put the sprinklers on for the birds as well as the flowers.

I have no idea what this guy is doing but he felt better too once I put the sprinkler on.


The little birds seem to handle it just fine.


They were chattering and nattering and flocking around back and forth all day. I put the sprinklers out front and they went around the front. They love to hang out in the wet trees and bushes.
The cardinals are around all the time

Nothing exotic here but I do love my birds.
I will show you some flowers from the last couple of days. I just love when I can get a shot like this one and then zoom in on it




You can see how that progresses. Well it was a good shot I thought so I did some close ups.

The daisies are still doing well.

While I was out the other day, we got some plants for the graves. I actually found some bright red Bee Balm. Remember I saw some up at the school. Well I found some, I had to buy it and I got it in the garden today. Pictures another day. So this is my garden for now...........rather boring really I will have to be a bit more adventurous with my garden posts. I don't have time to think lately.

The birds certainly look more refreshed after their play in the sprinkler! Your close up flower photos are amazing--love the water drop and you can even see the "hair" on the stem in the next photo!
The shots are wonderful Janice! Love the close-ups. I have not been interested in the garden too much this year, but I don't know why. Possibly because I'm losing all kinds of things to some kind of rot. We've had a fairly mild summer with lots of rain for the past few weeks. All your birds seem so appreciative of the sprinkler! I love giving the birds water in the bird bath, and they use it all day long ... big guys to little chickadees. Enjoy your weekend, it's a nice sunny one here! Wendy x
A summer bath if I was a bird i would love it.
Some great close ups there.
