A Second Look--July 8, 2015

Here are a few things I saw this week 
during a Second Look.

The goldfinch are particularly bright during mating season.


Even though the deer have eaten most of the day lily booms. I can still find them here and there.


Grandaddy long leg's spider.


Hosta bloom


Can you find the well camouflaged toad?


The trumpet lilies are starting to fade.


Cameleon plant--This is a very pretty ground cover that the deer leave alone. However, like many ground covers, it really spreads. Knowing this, I planted it in a small area surrounded by concrete on all four sides. However, it has still managed to escape, but is not out of control.


The wren has added another egg and more feathers to line the nest.


Usually we see the hummingbirds hovering over the feeder as they drink the nectar. This one decided to stay awhile and rest her wings while she was sipping.
