My day in photos...
Good Morning Sweet Heart...
~
Feeding his babes...
~
Empress butterfly
~
Painted Bunting spotted at the house...
~
A young tufted titmouse, I saw Mom and Dad feeding it...
~
I also saw some other birds but when I went to stalk them I was followed...
It is not easy trying to stalk birds and having 3 cats under foot and a horse in your face. I love them but sometimes they can be very irritating...
~
This Mockingbird has been sitting on this electric pole for weeks singing his heart out and then he bounces up into the air and then he comes straight down to the top of the pole over and over again, singing the whole time...
~
He's also the one that makes a sound like a baby chick, which is very annoying as I keep thinking there is a chick outside, lol...
And there he goes again...sure wish he'd find a mate, he's got to be tired? I'm tired just watching him day after day :o)
~
It sure is hard work helping Mom look for birds, the little brat!
~
Summer Tanger...I heard it and then spotted it in the tree next to the house, too cool.
~
Damselfly
~
Stalking a butterfly at the pool...
~
The painted bunting was back on the garden fence this evening, he sure is pretty.
~
Okay he's not what I call nature but he sure is cute. He didn't want to go swimming this evening but I played mean mean Mom and made him go...He sure had a lot of fun for not wanting to go.
~
Phlox, still blooming...
~
I saw a bug and took a photo...Then when I pulled the photo up on the computer I was laughing...definitely nature going on here, ekk!!
An update on this beetle..It is a Tiger beetle. We've got them here in France and they come in brown or green with spots! Noushka left a comment and told me what it was, thank you Ma'am.
~
Just because I thought it was cool...(I was bored and waiting for Michael to get out of the pool)
~
Sheesh, he's got thick eyelashes...(Mom don't post my eyeball on the Internet, lol)
~
This spider was crawling on Michael so he started playing with it, then he kept trying to get it to pose for me, silly boy. I was stunned as I can't believe he was playing with it, this is the same boy who almost flipped his kayak one day because there was an itty bitty spider on it. He's my boy and seems to be getting use to things. I'm proud of him!
~
Another Damselfly...
~
~
Brownspotted Yellow wing
~
Mexican Hat and or Cone flower
~
Not sure what it is, possibly the mint family. I am too lazy to look it up but I thought it was pretty.
That was my day in photos...It was gorgeous today, hope y'all had a great day!

Gorgeous pictures Wendy so are those from your last publication!
Your bug is a Tiger beetle. We've got them here in France and they come in brown or green with spots!
I love your Painted Bunting, what a beauty.... For him alone I would make the trip, if I could! :)
Your rooster hasn't asked loud enough for some sun, or he forgot the south of France!!
The weather is despicable for another 5 to 6 days at least! :(
Cheers and enjoy your WE too!
Thank you for sharing your pretty pictures.
Thank you Noushka. I love the painted buntings and I can just imagine the photos you would get, wow! Also thank you for the information on the beetle. My bug reference books aren't the greatest but I always love to know what I've found. Appreciate you stopping by and looking. I've noticed that our critters, birds and animals are similar. I love your photos!!
Thank you Paula. I appreciate your comments! I so Miss my friend John and wish I could share my photos with him :o(
