Evening creatures.



Ending the old year with old friends, little animals and insects. Here is a small frog inhabiting our agave in the front yard, what a cutie.  I know why he is probably here. In the fourth pic down you can't quite make them out but there are dozens of bees going in and out of the dull green flowers.  This plant that is in the front yard attracts soooo many bees its incredible, it has no smell as far as I can detect but attracts bees somehow.  I'm sure this little frog is hoping some or at least one of the bees stayed the night in the Pollen Hotel. Yum. 





these palm trees are a perfect silhouette for the setting sun, they also make nice roosts for the birds and they say the snakes also, but I try not to think of them living up there.... what if one fell...on my head?  UGH!!!




We have quite a few evening creatures here in central Florida, luckily not the type they have over closer to Orlando; bears, Yes, they have a bear problem.  I'll take the hundreds of bees, even snakes before a bear.  
So, bring on the small wildlife!

Yup! You guessed it the cat place, where you can drink your drinks, munch your snacks and pet cats the whole time, or if your like me you sit and watch the cats the whole time.  Tori was of course in her glory, petting a smooching cats everywhere.  Each of the cats have a pink or blue ribbon on them identifying them as male or female and with their name so you can look them up on a paper, that is on a table in the room, so you can tell how old they are.  I did find it very interesting watching the different cats interact with each other and us. They have little treats you can buy to entice them to come to you to be petted.  Tori was like this practically the whole time, this is her "happy place," amongst cats. Goodness she can go on and on about the virtues of each cat and she only met them once. This cat below is my kind of cat, wonderful to be seen but not touched. White, I like a white cat with a touch of black. They have "cat walks," u

I love the trailing days of fall, the light is different and the air feels just right. It always amazes me how the sun casts such a different kind of lighting onto the trees and other green thing this time of year almost like a spotlight but not harsh or hot.  I had a wonderful crop of raspberries just enough for a couple handfuls each day they were fun to watch progressing over the summer. At one point I had a scare. Some of the raspberry bushes got some kind of grub egg in them, I forget the name now but it lays an egg somehow that causes the top 3 inches or so to wilt. I googled it and got directions on how the save the plant and I think  I caught it in time. PHEW  I The garden as a whole is wonderful, a wild but productive place.  We have this one pretty maple tree in our backyard but unfortunately it may go next year we need the space to plant some fruit trees. I hate to cut trees but they grow like mad here.  I’ll leave you with my b
