more july wildlife

I find that the hummingbirds prefer the small-flowered canna....

It may not have as spectacular of a flower as the large flowered types... but... who cares when the pay-off on the small-flowers is in attracting these sweeties?
And visiting the salvia...
I totally avoid feeders... I feel like they harm the critters... makes getting pics a bit more of a challenge, but I'm not putting out GMO products or poisoned bird food... or helping spread bird diseases...

 Pigweed caterpillar, I've never seen these b4.
