{Almost} Wordless Wednesdays - In the Garden

Our Hostas are blooming.

I tried to catch a hummingbird feeding.

Man, they're fast.

I caught this slow guy instead.  Do you see him in there?

There he is.

Thanks for popping in.  If you want to see some amazing hummingbird pics from someone with way better photog skills than myself, check out Kat's latest post at Low Tide, High Style.  Don't forget to come back tomorrow for my monthly Before Blogging Party.  Learn more about it here.  I'm linking up to A Glimpse Inside's Catch a Glimpse Party.

    Lovely lavender and green colors. I love hosta flowers-they take so little work. Apparently they are draught tolerant in the shade. We have not had rain in weeks. I think our allotment of water all came in spring. Love the bee. Hummingbirds are fickled and fast; not easy to photograph, but very fun to watch.

    Hummingbirds are so fast. The bumble bee was a good consolation. Love the flowers.
