This is a little bunny that hangs out near the garden. It’s growing quite fast. I figure the pin wheels and pie pans are the only things keeping it out of the garden. Thank goodness there’s lots of nice clover and grass in the yard for it to feed on.
The honeysuckle vines are blooming. The air is very sweet & aromatic right now.
I saw this pretty little wild strawberry growing in a day-lily. I’ve never eaten a wild strawberry. I like seeing them and think they’re charming.
This funny looking orange fuzzy ball growing in a cedar tree is called ‘cedar-apple rust’. It’s a strange part of a disease that requires two hosts, a cedar or juniper tree and an apple tree, for the disease to complete it’s cycle and cause damage. It releases spores that infect apple trees and ruin the crop. Fortunately, we don’t have any apple trees to worry about.
It’s the sad end of the season for the beautiful peony blooms. They’re on their way to the long winters rest.
My first squash bloom bud and it’s a female. Hopefully, It won’t be long until we’ll get to try these new variety of squash.
Our Birthday Boy spent most of the weekend playing and napping with his new toy. Turning 2 must’ve wore him out. lol Shelibean is such a cutie-pie when he’s napping. 😉

After the storms left, I spent a great deal of time outside. I took a lot of photos.

None of my peonies bloomed this year. 😦
