Lots of Flowers.......

This time of year there are a lot of pretty flowers. I don't see too many birds. Now and again they sort of half heartedly come snoop around, especially the Chickadees and Bluejays, seldom anyone else. Not many photo opps.
Although I have twice bought new camera's I go back to my old Kodak, it just gets a clearer sharper image for me. I am not an expert so want a point and shoot that works as I want it to, without the fiddling.
So here are some pretties from my garden the last couple of days.




The Daylilies seem to continue to bloom, one after the other to keep colour in the garden. I must get more of those, they are so reliable. They come in wonderful colours and look different at different times of the day.



I seem to take pictures every day of the lillys because they are so pretty. The Bee Balm is up and splendid, it seems to get taller every year. I need to move a few things out of its way so that the lilly does not have to compete for light.


My Bee Balm is in 3 colours. I have noticed that the coloured daisies have not come back this year. The white ones are doing well though. This is the front from the road

The bottles filled an empty space. The side that I did new this year is doing OK. I will move some of the lilly's there in the Fall. I could also move some yellow daisies.


The side near Buds house is in need of attention, the shrub needs to be pruned and the yellow daisies pulled. Those red things are pretty when they flower



Some of the Roses are doing well this year and continue to bloom.



More Lilly's




I take pictures every day, so many don't get shown. I wish in some ways I had an outlet for it so that I could show my pictures. It would be great to be able to sell some. Maybe I will do a facebook page of just my flowers and birds.
This rose finally has a flower, its a pale pink Knockout rose. It got black spot and died back but this year looks healthy.

This guy is taking his life in his hands. Both cats have their eye on him and when he was on the bird feeder he let me go right up to him. I am sure he would have eaten out of my hand if I was so inclined.


I won't encourage that though. I would love to see other creatures come to the feeders instead of squirrels.
A couple of things doing well this year


These things are so pretty and so invasive. I will pull a bunch when they stop blooming. The bees like them though and because they are pretty I will allow them to grow, just choose where.




OK enough for today. I need to go get some water and while I think about it my inside plants need water too.
