A little too warm, maybe ?!

With the temp reading +19 degrees Celsius at 3:47 p.m. and you see Old Man Toad above ground 🐸 - that's what we named him! Poor creatures are so confused by this awesome warm weather! Even the trees have started to bud! 🍂 Cheers to a great evening 🍷🔮🍁🐼

Monarch Caterpillar

I saw this beautiful monarch caterpillar on one of the garden milkweed! 🦋 Is it not a bit late for them in the season?! 🤔 I have seen so many hatched monarchs flying about already; I hope it won't be too late for this one 🐛 #MonarchCaterpillar #Gardens #Nature 🪻🌞

Rain 🌧 Soaked

As much as I surely love the Rains 🌧 for watering the gardens, the Bergamot - not so much! 🤔 Next year, I'll be sure to find some fencing to keep them more upright 🪻 Thankfully, the Bees 🐝 & other pollinators are still able to access the flowers & blooms! 🦋
