The Virginia birds are back after a long Winter. Loud chatter overnight!

A few cute images that our Wildlife camera caught this week #1.

Snakes are good for your yard and garden. The Ratsnake is harmless and you can see he was startled by us and wanted to get away. I love seeing them.

This little guy could not fly, I took it to the local wildlife center. It's prognosis is not good but it did start feeding itself after volunteers hand fed it for an hour.

My greenhouse window last year. We've made some changes this year!

The teeny weeny hoverfly is a fascinating insect to watch. Often mistaken for a bee - it's not! You know it's a hoverfly when you see it hovering. Look at the BIG eyes, fly eyes - not bee eyes. It does not sting either.

One of my favorite shrubs, the flame azalea. Unlike the standard small around variety, these guys get tall. I can't grow a standard hybrid azalea to save me but my native flames are beautiful and healthy.

Nancy - I've not been on tumblr for awhile! How long ago did you contact me? I'll see if I can find you on FB ----------- don't check tumblr msg often as a lot of spam :)

I love annual 4 o'clocks and so do the night pollinators and hummingbirds (only after 4 though as the flowers are closed during the daylight)! Fascinating plant.

Is purple a color for you?

He gets breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack and activities during the day. He says they are all good souls and the food is good!
