Our world in July

The Washington Lilies are out

and daisies are everywhere.

 

                                                  A summer thunderstorm came through last week                                                    and brought this to the patio's sky at about 8:15 pm

We've been hearing what sounds like 100s of birds singing and chirping in our inner courtyard all                       the time.  One day I was weeding under our magnolia tree and happened to look up.                         Five very large nests at the very top.

A huge crocusmia plant in our inner courtyard has been in full red bloom for a couple weeks now.
