My flower garden hasn't looked this good for several years...
I blame our moody weather...it's either too wet or too dry.
Greens and browns set the scenes here this time of year.
Some trees are heavily draped with wild grapes vines...
and after the deer eat the lower leaves of a walnut tree...
a few green walnuts always hang low and exposed.
This time of year the sunrays find the hammock!
...and the brown Carolina Wren finds the sun.
Brown and Green again....
I found this 'Giant' Praying Mantis in the field....
and a little greenish tree frog has been living in a birdhouse on the porch
....for a week now!
More green and brown (plus a little white) fungi and seed heads.
The little deer family still visit often....
they even use the path through the tall browning grass of the field.
Enlarge the photo and you can see their footprints on the dewy path.
I followed them....but they quickly disappeared.
The Bluebirds are always surveying the field and are turning browner too.
I always pass the staring eyes of Mr. Oak Tree on my way to the field.
I walk behind him if I'm going to the swing under the Walnut tree.
It's green views from that swing this time of year...
No colorful flowers in the garden in the far distant left...
or Lily-of-the-Valley under the lower right tree.
One cloudy day a large brown buck meandered through
the Blackberry Lily....while eating a few seeds.
Close behind was a slightly smaller friend!
The males never stay long.
The garden needs some cutting and cleaning.
Herhusband has been cutting and cleaning up trees out back.
I managed to capture one tree in it's fall....He claims to have purposely
made it land on the stump!
Herhusband cleaned the outside of my computer room windows.
You can see the blue of the ladder he needed to use.
They're too high up for me to do...my part is the windows inside
Laundry I do on my own...it hangs outside on the days that are dry.
There 'is' a little blue amongst the green and brown.
Alivia walked down one day with yellow in her hair...
another day she wore pink hearts while riding her purple bike.
Her blue eyes and rosy cheeks brighten my day often!
At least I have a few colorful meals to post...
but actually I do see a lot of brown and green mixed in with the...
salads, baked chicken, stuffed zucchini, potato salad, ravioli,
mushroom soup, veg. soup, parmesan couscous & fish.
Desserts were blueberry crisp, banana walnut cake,
orange-chocolate chip-cranberry bread, peaches,
Greek yogurt with blueberry bread and sugar melon.
It's been raining here for a few days now.
It's been awhile since I saw the sun...
and the last time it wasn't very bright.
Maybe tomorrow I'll wake to a Sunshine Day!
Bye For Now
