Hummingbird Aerobics

One evening after supper I was sitting out and got lucky by the appearance of a Male Ruby Throated Hummingbird having a lot of fun!!

One of my favs - Mid Air Hover

Wren Mania

I was out chasing kittens as I am wont to do, when I heard this lovely chirping behind me!!
I looked over, and there was a beautiful wren sitting on the gate!

(Doing a Marilyn Monroe impression)


(OKay, Maybe it was just a windy day)


Sing Sing Sing!


Then I discovered that there are TWO of them!!



They have since followed me home, and now they sit on the bluebird house (that the bluebirds havent used) and sing.. very lovely!!

Bugs and Bugs and Bugs Galore!!!

Also known as - Do not look if you do not like BUGS! I am SLOWLY trying to ID some of these guys.. easier said then done!!

I dont think I posted him before - a beautiful Fiery Hunter Beetle


This lovely Ladybug Lookalike (okay a monochrome one) is apparently a Leaf Beetle..



This large beauty caught my eye - no idea on a name though yet!!! Although I have been told that they bite.. hmm..



SPIDER!!! This big one was wandering around my work area when I was building a table.. I think its an egg sac she is dragging around?
