Great For Pest Control

I was sitting on the patio this morning sipping my coffee when I saw this beautiful dragonfly grab and eat an insect midair. Wish I was faster with my phone camera, it would have made a great picture.

One less bug in my backyard. I like that kind of natural pest control.

Thinking About Hope When This Popped Up

This Guy Was Cute Until He Jumped On My Head

Kind of a Wordless Wednesday

When I was taking this picture I was a couple of inches away from this praying mantis. We were both in shock after it jumped on my head. I got lucky and I got a picture.

A Dragonfly On My Finger

My Friends Call Me
Mrs. Sunshine

Over the July 4th weekend my husband and I were sitting on the patio enjoying a cup of coffee when a dragonfly came around. He or she comes by often, and flies really close to where we sit. I always talk to it as if it understands what I’m saying.

This time it landed on one of our lanterns and my husband said you should try to pick it up.

I thought for a quick second and then I grabbed my trusty iPhone, and this is what happened…

As I was waiting for this video to upload I went back outside to get up and move around. As soon as I walked out the door my dragonfly friend came around. I got him on video. He let me pick him up again. I think I really do have a new friend.

I’m also thankful for  my wonderful hubby John, for providing me with the music. He stopped the music project he was working on to quickly record a bit of peaceful music for my video on my little blog.  OXOXOX

Thanks for stopping by,

Wordless Wednesday – No More Empty Nest for Me

A few days ago I noticed some strange changes to one of my hanging plants.

Yesterday I found something else. Click on the image to see larger version.

Later in the day my visiting bird left her nest.
I was able to get a peek at these little beauties.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed my little nature shots. And my almost Wordless Wednesday.

Cheers,

I love comments, tweets, Diggs, and all the rest, so don’t be shy. Let me know you were here.

Work or Rainbow ~ Which One?

I thought this plant was dead and gone. After nine years it popped up and produced 2 beautiful flowers.
