Backyard & Butterflies

Tim and I have been busy in the backyard over the past couple of weeks. We have planted two water oaks and have added some flowers, ferns, a hummingbird feeder, and a bird feeder. I thought you might enjoy a few pictures....

A gorgeous butterfly found our purple flowers to be very welcoming.

This is our water oak's major debut in the backyard...
I was showing Tim the clay soil and how it clumps
Tim was very, very sore the next day. Look at that face! ;)
Ahh.... shade for the backyard - at some point. :)

Well, dear readers, tomorrow I will show you the video of our hummingbirds. We found 5 at our feeder and it only seats four at a time. There was some fighting... but I think they all were fed.
