  1. I loved feeding the birds. The Chickadees were always my favorite. Or was it nuthatch? Or the downy woodpecker? Or the ladder-back? Maybe they were all my favorites. What I didn't love were the raccoons that came in and made pigs of themselves by eating all the seed. Or the bears that not only ate the see, but ran away with the feeder. Needless to say I don'[t feed the birds any longer. I do have a birdbath and that is fun to watch.
    I have never had a cardinal come into my yard. Is there a secret to getting them to come in?

  2. II am starting a second zinnia bed for my hummingbirds, finches, and butterflies this year. The zinnias in the new bed are sprouting now. I put down some blue bachelor button seeds at the edge of the zinnia beds. Haven't seen the buttons sprouting yet. Maybe got washed away by rain. I thought the bright zinnias would be pretty with some blue thrown in. Hope my h. birds approve.

  3. So Brenda must have been a hummingbird in another life…she sweet, and loves red. I love that little columbine…have to seed some of mine as soon as it warms up.

  4. Your flowers are wonderful! Wow it is 90 over here in NWArkansas. Hope not that hot your way. Take care my friend!

  5. I would love a butterfly garden. I need to figure out how to get my bird feeder in this hard clay packed dirt. It's like cement 🙁

  6. I suppose that yard has been empty of treats for them for years, so it will take some time. They will love your gardens! Thought of you this morning when I had to hand wring out a throw pillow that kept stopping the drum! After 3x of ringing it out it finally finished it's cycle!

  7. I have a dear, sweet Oklahoma friend who would love this post! She's plants her flower beds to attrack hummingbirds and butterflies, too. Beautiful photos!

  8. The little sparrows are such cute little birds and yes, they need to eat too. Once the others see their is a buffet out, they will show up. I've tried growing dill many times. It's just too darn hot here.

  9. Such lovely flower photos. I'm really hoping you draw a hummingbird or two in the near future. Hurray…the birds are finally coming! Enjoyed this post…
