What a lovely view you have from your kitchen window. All those lovely blooms to attract butterflies and hummingbirds. I doubt I'd get anything done if I stood looking out of your window!!
Very very nice gardening. Butterflys an hummers think so also. So nice to have an outside view like that. Good job. b
Absolutely gorgeous view! I still want Gail's kitchen window. We've seen few butterflies this year, and the zinnias don't like me either. Maybe we'll do better next year.
Striking disp[lay of flowers and insects, Gail. Your garden is really showing it's stuff today! What a delight to see it all.
What a wonderful site to see this hot morning.I love Zinnias also.I think they draw more butterfies than most plants.I have a Kiss-Me-Over-the Garden-Gate that really draws them.I think you garden is so pretty.
Thank you all so much for your comments. It has been a challenge with our heat and drought to keep the flowers, butterflies & birds happy. I love to be in the garden but not in this extreme heat.
Well with the extreme weather, you deserve even a bigger compliment for your result. Well done! These fotos show just gorgeous stuff.
Gail, Your photos are just wonderful! You have created a beautiful view of the world! Thanks for sharing!
I like all the photos, but the first and last are breath taking. Nice job of photography. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Kay, Drissel & Jewell, I love combining two of my passions gardening & photography. Thanks for the compliments.
