summer colours

This fence post lizard is wearing his best finery, hanging out on top of a sassafras post... Hoping to attract a new lover.

The brugmansias have begun to bloom.


The honey bees seem to be very interested in the datura....


Gulf fritillary butterflies have found the zinnias.

These red sunflowers are attracting plenty of polinators.



Got some painted lady butterflies...

Silver-spotted skipper enjoys the 7-minute itch plant, even if I don't...

These little yellow cherry tomatoes are sweet!

Most of the squash are through... I still have some, because I replanted some of the thinned plants...

The flowers are beautiful. Good that they feed the butterflies and bees. Have you been getting enough rain, or do you have to water them to keep them going? We're having to water water water.
