Life in the backyard

Here's a few shots from the backyard:


Chamomile. We have several pots of this. Leece uses it for tea.



Echninacea. Also good for tea, though we do not have near as much of this as we do chamomile.



Giallardia. It's starting to fade a bit. This is actually from near the Cape Lookout National Seashore. We smuggled it back with us on one of our trips. Note the 'near,' not 'from.'



Morning glories are looking good. We have some hummingbirds hanging around these.



Checking out the sunflowers, which are just about to burst forth in blooms. When they do, we'll have a surge in honeybees, and as they go to seed, we'll have herds of finches chowing down.
