The bird that thought he was a hummgbird!!!

Promise of a versatile garden to come.

Finally putting my tomato starts outside, after the hardening them off.

Such a late spring this year. Birds are even late getting started on nesting. Robins are enjoying the worms in the garden after a good rain.

Nothing like the smell of lilacs!

Dove nest.

Hidden in the tree.

Another mama bird waiting for me to move away from her nest too.

She made her next up in the flower planter.

The ladybug beetles are REALLY excited that spring is finally here and it is finally warm!!

The neighbor's cat comes to keep me company.

And now the cottonwoods are starting to make it look like it is snowing!!!

The garden is coming along....

There were still some dark June storms.

That tore tree limbs down and made a mess all over the area.

By the end of June the tomatoes were coming along.
