(not so) Speechless Sunday - The Last Hoorays of Summer...

(not so) Speechless Sunday...

Although the colors are draining from the flowers in the garden, there is still a lot of activity from the flying flowers as they zip from the array of late blooming flowers in my garden. Yesterday afternoon, there must have been over 50 of these miniature inch long butterflies enjoying the last hoorays of Summer...

Ok its almost time to get some mums and plant some bulbs for next year. I love this cool time of the year to play in my yard. Off I go!

Dick and Dixie, Thanks...

Laura, I'll start working on the bulbs early next month. I have to put netting down over them to keep the squirrels and deer from getting to them...

Thanks for sharing. As the leaves change color, the pictures of fall will be a good substitute for the flowers of the summer.

I like the EYES.  The little creature seems to be looking at you and asking, "What are you doing?  You can't take my picture".  Thanks for sharing this with us, Michael.

Michael,  Your garden must be amazing.  My mom was an avid flower gardener and her gardens were gorgeous.  However, I didn't inherit her abilities.  My Dad grew vegetables, now that I can do!!  Thanks for sharing.

I have a condo listed that has a ton of Hummingbirds around it and I don't have a camera fast enough to capture them.
