 Title: Hips, Hips, Hooray!

Dog-rose hips which are formed after the flowers have died off. The fruit is edible and can be made into tea, jam, syrup and more. Very health beneficial!

Did not know that, but how awesome! I would love to forage about with you sometime. :) 

Play(s) on words or other word-games make me smile like a silly loon! This is a bed of lettuce, literally. I might have been the only one that had a good, loud laugh at this one. xD

The last couple of years I've been planting more perennial flowers for my resident Hummingbirds, Bees and other nectar eating friends. With said plants coming to life, I've noticed a couple new species coming around more and more often.. one of them being the : Hummingbird Clearwing!

This Hummingbird Clearwing (Hermaris thysbe) is feeding off of some phlox just outside of my living room window.  These guys are of the Moth family and are also day time flyers!

My son is the most hilarious kid I have ever met. I ugly-laughed for about ten minutes after this was taken. 

Skell - I needed that laugh, thank you LOL 

This is bunny. He is my grandmother's dog and he enjoyed sitting in his little chair when I was visiting back in January. 

Sir Bunbun

I'm going for something I'm very proud of!

My Art Certificate

As summer fades away I'm reminded I don't get out and take pictures the way I used to anymore.
