JACQUE ~ THAT IS SO COOL, YOUR YARD IS ALIVE. IVE SEEN BEES ON THE HEATHER AND VIBURNUM TOO. WE HAVE TWO BLUE JAYS THAT JUST CHATTER ALL DAY NEAR THE BIRD FEEDERS. I NAMED THEM MAY AND JAY. LOL
IT'S AMAZING TO ME TO JUST SIT STILL IN THE YARD WHICH IS TOTALLY PRIVATE AND LISTEN TO ALL THE SOUNDS I MIGHT NOT NORMALLY HEAR.

Go Girl!!! that is so great...better get a 2Gig card for your camera... you've got the shutter-bug. Have you found out the name of the butterfly yet? should ask Diohio. it looked like a moth to me because it was at rest with it's wings open, but I think Diohio has a pic of one on her page and she named it... might want to take a look.
Cheers!

This is great! What a wonderful treat for the Wildlife.....just the perfect
setting for them. I love your pictures Jacque, it all looks so serene and
peaceful. Do you start your Wildflowers from seed? I started my Wild-
flowers from plugs bought from a Catalogue called "Wrigglers".
They are good, but, can be a bit expensive!

Hi FreeS im glad u enjoy caring 4 Wildlife to :) I grew My Own Corncockle/Cornflower/Clover Plants last yr & Planted them into the Long Grass Meadow Area , but this yr im trying something different!!! I Strimmed The Meadow Area Very Short in October & let the Strimmer Line Slice into the Soil,My Next step is2 Sprinkling a Wildflower Seed Mix onto it & Lightly Covering with some Soil !! Im hopeing il get more Flowers this way as last yr it was more Grass! Iv found Wildflowers can be Expensive so Fingers Crossed this will work ;)

With your LTC you are sure to be rewarded, you have done everything I
would have done so "Good Luck".

By the way, all my plug plants never survived as our little
friends the Squirrels dug some of them up and devoured them. I did get a good show!
but it could have been better.
