Here are a couple of moon pix I took in 2012 from my back yard. I liked
how the tree branches framed the moon.

This bush grows in my back yard. It just showed up one day. I'm sure some bird
pooped the seeds out and they took root. Whatever it is, the bees and butterflies
love it. Unfortunately the flowers don't last long. Tiny flowers and small leaves.


This is honeysuckle that grows in my back yard.


This is what my back fence looked like before my idiot neighbor decided the honeysuckle
needed to be "trimmed." He wanted to cut away the dead bits. Unfortunately, the dead
bits grow under the live part and there's no way to cut them away without killing
the plant, as he soon learned. REALLY pissed me off. The honeysuckle used to smell
soooooo good in the spring, and the hummingbirds were all over it. Maybe some day it
will come back. There's still a little bit alive.

(I didn't resize this pic. I hope it's not too big for some of you.)

This is from my rose bush. It's not doing very well this year. I don't know if it's because I
haven't pruned it at all for a few years. This photo is from a few years ago.

I want very much to go out and take some pictures, but I don't. Depression is like that.
It keeps you from doing a lot of things you'd like to do. :-(

This is "red clover" that I bought from, of all places, Publisher's Clearing House. They
don't just give away money. They also have an online store. Sorry I can't tell you how
to get there. They don't advertise it and the only way I knew it was there was by getting
offers in my email. But they haven't sent me anything for a while.

I had it inside until recently, when one of the kitties decided to climb in and take a nap.
That smushed everything down, so I took it outside into the sun to see if it would perk
back up. It did, and then some! It loves being outside! Of course it will come back inside
once the temperature becomes much less hospitable. But here in central Texas, that
won't be for a while. Probably October. Possibly even November.

That's a beautiful looking plant...wonder if we can get them in the UK.


Thank you.

Just google it and see if someone nearby is selling it.

I called it red clover. I meant red shamrock. And what I see online is that people
are actually calling it purple shamrock. Oops. Sorry.

Your pic with the water droplets is stunning!

Standing in the kitchen on Sunday and noticed a young robin eating the walnuts from the squirrel feeder.



Still not got adult plumage.

And one of dad's neighbours dog Misty, a beagle in her favourite spot, the living room window sill!!



Even has a pillow.

It certainly is! Fishing, deep snow, soupy mud, rocks, anything that is considered extreme terrain.
