backyard

We can't believe how much the butterfly bushes have grown. The berm is lined with butterfly bushes, and there are always hummingbirds and butterflies dodging from one bush to the other. The tomatoes are starting to ripen as well. Next year I think I will plant 2 more...... there is nothing like homegrown tomatoes.













We put out a finch feeder as well as a wild bird feeder. It's always a busy morning for the birds here.


Have a happy weekend!!
