Sphinx Moth...

 
I thought I got buzzed by a Hummingbird this evening but it was a Sphinx moth. They are almost as big as a hummingbird and they sure love the blooms on the Jasmine.

Fishing fun...

 
I went over to Coleto Lake Reservoir this morning and fished with a friend....
 
We may not have caught much but we got to relax and enjoyed ourselves!!



Nice to know I haven't lost my touch!!
 
It's been over a year since our creek has dried up and I've been fishing! I have missed it!

The start of the garden is near at hand...

 
Not sure I am ready but today we got a lot accomplished....While Fred was busy doing maintenance on the tractor and hooking up the cultivator I was snapping photos of the wildflowers that are popping up!

Jumping Spider, Michael spotted it and thought it would make a good photo op. Now if it would have stopped moving and posed for me!

We got the garden cultivated and the fence put back up, whew!!

I plan on starting with potatoes soon and later in March putting the rest in. I started seeds today and put them in the green house. We still aren't out of danger of getting a frost yet.

My Jasmine is in full bloom!!

 It is covered in butterflies too...

It's unbelievable how many butterflies are fluttering around the Jasmine. Tomorrow if it's nice I'll try for a video. I also think it's time to fill the hummingbird feeders, they'll be here soon.
