Flower Bed…..Friends

This little guy is a steady customer in the flower beds:

Hummingbird

He is selfish with the flowers…

He doesn't want to share any of the flowers in the yard

You can see his tongue sticking out of his beak…

It is rare that these little birds sit still for very long.

This fellow sat still for several minutes so here is some

LIVE video……enjoy!

Yes, Gunnr loves to walk through the yard with me...

Pumpkin plants growing in the back by the fence…

Gunnr finds a walk through the flowers very relaxing.

As always, you are welcome to use my images

in your personal art work.

I am always happy to share a bit of inspiration!

Making Hay…..July 2014

Yes, we are still in the hay fields…

Today I am raking hay…

Brad is following me with the baler

Gunnr finally woke up from his nap under the shady tree:

Gunnr

He quickly figured out that it is cooler... 

on the shady side of the bale!

The raking is done so I am heading for home...

Brad still has a few rows left to bale.

As I pull down the driveway,

a few of the yearling cattle are by the barn.

(to the right of the barn is a white roof,

that is the Thread Shed)

I have been trying to pull a few weeds in the evenings:

Hollyhock Bed……back yard
