| Latest View of the Garden |
The garden is changing so fast. It's hard to believe that just a little under 2 months ago we were planting the plants. This morning we had a small Coopers Hawk come visit our garden for almost an hour. He was sitting on a branch overlooking the garden and watching for squirrels and chipmunks. Still no picture of the red newt, but we're working on it. I'm also finding that my knowledge of the local plants are expanding as I have a new interest in the plants around our garden.

| Unknown Mushroom from Woods behind Garden |
This mushroom sprouted after Elsa went by. The rain has brought all sorts of mushrooms out. I'm working on an ID but so far no luck.

| Bee Balm |

| Small Bee on Purple Cone Flower |
This bee is an unknown to me. but is very busy gathering pollen to turn into honey. Its leg sacks are so full it could hardly fly.

| Fritillary Butterfly |
This is a Fritillary butterfly, but I'm not sure which one it is. Butterflies don't usually sit long enough to get a picture. We are getting more butterflies as they hatch The Hummingbirds are also starting to visit the flowers.
