Autumn Color

 Monarchs came by in their migration... I seldom get visited...

So many monarchs! 5 at one bush, 5 at another, and more in the flowers behind me!

And... one actually bothered to visit the milkweed... And.... they say to cut down the milkweeds...

In their migration, they didn't seem interested in egg laying...

Terrible year for brugmansia... this is the first bloom I've noticed...

Stupid raccoons keep coming...

The cat is hunting spiny cucumbers...

 These pipevine grow so well, I wish that the pipevine swallowtail would use them...

Row of variegated pepper plants...

 Tibouchina.... planted as a stem cutting back in the winter of 2012... and mostly ignored ever since.

Had songbirds eating the beauty berries last week, but nobody would pose for their photograph.

How about these swamp sunflowers with the purple daisies in back?

Gonna start eatin' some turnips directly...
