taken from the bedroom window. You can see one of the leaves of the virginia creeper. it grew to cover the window...best sun shade I've ever seen. the silhouette shadows were beautifully animated by the sparrows and the breezes. Window art without the $$$.

That wispy white tree is fantastic. What is that? Makes me think of Russian Olive.

I love it too, Sandra. I've bought one for the new garden. It's been very dry and the little stream has dried up. We are worrying about our well so I can't justify using well water on my plants.. Have a rainbarrel but it's low too! Have found Virginia Creeper growing in three places on the property...none of them near the house though... Will rectify that next spring.
