Sunday Yardening

Today is mostly sunny, hot, and muggy.  I went out to feed birds, then again to water plants.

The finches are going nuts over the thistle seed.  I keep seeing lots of house finches and goldfinches.  The indigo bunting still seems to favor the sunflower seeds.



The golden raintree is blooming.  :D  My Here Lies Butch daylilies have big buds that should open soon.

We have a lot of goldfinches around here too.
The smaller birds seem to love nesting in my Summer Snowflake Viburnum hedge.
