Life in the Backyard

Waves on Lake Michigan at the end of the day.

Grapes at sunrise. Their fragrance is wonderful.

The night blooming cereus had a second set of blooms this year. This time I got up early in the morning to see if it stayed open all night/ Here it is in full glory in early dawn.

Sunset in the grape vines.

Sunrise in the grape vines.

Geese heading out for their morning mowing the grass duties.

It’s the morning meet and greet around the water cooler.

Straight from the tree, warm from the morning sun, the peaches are ready and the birds and bugs won’t beat me to them this time.

Summer sunshine and sweetness packed into the pears, pure bliss.

The hydrangea was the place to be for these tiny wasps. I counted another 10 bugs in the flower itself when I enlarged it, several different varieties.
