August in the Garden

Candle flame yellow..

our patty pans have been spectacular

Hops that when dried

will be mixed with home grown lavender

and buckwheat hull...

a lovely lulling sleep pillow to make

Fuzzy furry visitor

Proof of an organic plot

We do have tomatoes

but they live somewhere else

and have been quite bizarre this year

with curled leaves and cores

so tough they are hard to slice,

but delicious nonetheless.

Plenty

Bounty

Earthly Goodness

With appreciation and affection,

Hello Sunshine

Wishing all a wonderful week.

E.

The Little Green Jewel

is still here,

although there have been

a few sad days

when I could not find him.

My son has declared,

"You have

separation anxiety, Ma."

Probably so!

Here are a few more

photos from the last few days,

and a new discovery

that probably explains

where he has been.

Are you able to see

the reflection in his eye?

Those are the fir trees

in the distance.

Here he is moving away

as if to say,

"Please grant me

some privacy."

The brownish colored curve

on the left in the photo

is an old wool hat

that I found on the ground

one day and carelessly

tossed up there.

And, here he appears

to spend most of his day,

even in the heat..underneath the hat.

Oh, he has been a most welcome guest

and such a little wonder.

I believe that he is

a Pacific Coast Tree Frog,

aka Chorus Frog.

Chorus Frog is so much more lyrical,

don't you think?

Wishing all a beautiful weekend,

and sending thanks for such thoughtful comments.

E.
