Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in November, 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024. The deck of the bridge is now under that pile of debris.

A bug, flower and birds...

 Not 10 minutes after reading Vicki's blog about a Beetle...this little guy was right in front of me. I didn't do like she did, however, and look it up.

It's nice to see some variegated lilies around.

Three fuzzy (sorry out of focus) little wren chicks in the little house on my balcony. Finally the parents returned to feed them. The babies are quiet at least, but the parents aren't!

Today's quote:
It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. -Arthur Conan Doyle, physician and writer (22 May 1859-1930)

    Lovely day lilies. My orange wild ones are blooming; the varieties are just budding. They are very slow this year.
    Japanese beetle, the only good one is a dead one.

      Oh, I didn't know that beetle was a bad one. I let him go!

    Japanese beetles are voracious eaters. If you see more, look into ways to control them.

    I like today's quote.
