Garden Tour

Today I had the pleasure of hosting two of the town's finest and most gracious women at my humble garden of chaos.  They came for a tour of the madness that is my mess of a garden, and came prepared for bugs, mud and pickin'!  Only, I'd already doled out some beans for them in ziplock baggies as a door prize for braving the hot, hot, hot almost July sun.  The first day of summer and it was a doozie.  

Forest was happy to get lots of attention and he sat with us at the table on the deck while the Tree Swallows practiced their aerobatics and the Mockingbirds defended their territory from some interlopers and the Bluebirds, Goldfinches and Little Brown Jobs visited the feeders below us in the Crepe Myrtle.  It was a wonderful way to start what promises to be a busy week, with my Asian Fusion class tomorrow night (sold out!) and a stint at Green Market Wednesday wearing my bird nerd hat.  

For the ladies who toured my garden today: thank you and please come again.  There's always a door prize when you come visit.  And a bonus, a picture of Forest, the friendliest and chattiest little garden buddy I know.  You, too, Paloma.
