A day in July.........

Today's garden. I just love the Day lilies and how they just brighten things up so much. I must get more. I need more orange ones.

Mrs Cardinal came for a visit, Mr was after her though and with Tristen outside they didn't stay around long. She got her tummy full though.

My wild flowers, this is the Milk Weed. I grow it for the butterflies, but the bees love it too

Just a day in the life of my garden........more tomorrow maybe. The bee balm is coming out and the butterfly weed is brilliant. Waiting to get some good shots of bees bugs and butterfly soon.
