Garden Sights

Insects are everywhere at this time of the year.  Some of the dragonflies have quite spectacular coloring patterns.  Yesterday, Karen saved the life of a beautiful dragonfly, an Aeshna multi-colored blue-eyed Darner dragonfly.  The dragonfly was caught in a large spider web on tomato plants in our new sunny garden.  She released the dragonfly.  It rested on the straw until departing.  








 
We have many peaches, plums, figs, pears, and apples on our fruit trees at the present time. We enjoy eating ripe peaches every day.  Squash and pumpkins are also plentiful.
