The Wet, Wet Garden

After worrying about the rain deficit (we were below normal for April), Mother Nature generously rewarded us with an abundance of rain this past week. I am not going to complain although I do wish it would skip my off-days. Today (Saturday) is an especially wet day. I ventured out briefly and took a few shots. The plants grow so fast from the rain.

Okay, everyone is asking me where I found the feeder. Believe it or not, it came from Wal-Mart!

  6. Hi Phillip... I have to confess I really wish hummingbird feeders did not exist... always see it as feeding "fast food" to our little friends. Kind of like a sleazy fast food dive, and I have never understood how folks enjoy seeing such a beauty sipping from plastic. Your hummingbird feeder is a thing of utter beauty however, and from the looks of it, you keep it very clean. Is this something you made yourself? Timeless photo! Beautiful! Brava!

  7. Beautiful feeder. It has an antique look. Don't think I've seen one like that locally.

  8. Fantastic photo!

    I do love that bottle on your feeder. We rarely use the feeders in midsummer with so many flowers in bloom (we use it in early spring and late fall). Is the bottle antique? Did you make this yourself? I'd love to have a few of those!

  13. You are joking! Really... well there is a reason to go to Wal Mart... if one must have a feeder... but surely you are joking... is it glass?

  14. Wal-Mart??? Noooooo! I may have to go, just for that ($12.88). It isn't available online, dangit.
