Frog Days of Summer...


When it's just too hot,
jump in the water.
Summer is really here.
Really hot.
And, really dry.

Even if it's the dog and cat outside water bowl....
a cool hangout, is a cool hangout.

"They" say, we're supposed to get some rain,
the next few days.
We'll see.

Hope you have the weather you want.

Happy Gardening...

Wildlife at the Watering Hole....


August, already.
I'm joining Tina over at 
for 
Wildlife Wednesday.

My contribution this month, 
is short and sweet.

It's getting hot. 
That's normal, for this time of year in Texas.

So, our different 'watering holes' here,
are getting a lot of customers.


We fill a galvanized tub with water, for the different creatures.
The most often customers are the deer.

But, a birdbath comes in handy, on a hot, humid afternoon.

Birds actually come to the birdbaths, too.
We have three birdbaths, and a fountain that the birds really like.
It's just too hot to sit out there to get a shot.

This big guy shows up at the tub, too.

It's almost time to 'cage' some plants.
These guys like to rub that velvet off their antlers.
It really can mess up an agave or yucca.

Be sure to visit Tina, for more 
Wildlife Wednesday.

Happy Gardening...
