A Late Summer Garden: Part FOUR (oh, and a visitor on the same day!)

Thanks for continuing to follow my blog and this series of late garden photos
as you await my autumn photos to arrive....
I am still gone on many a hike to get autumn photos for future blogposts
for you,
thus pre-publishing these garden photos for you in the meantime.






One of my favorite summer flowers: daylilies!:






And on a trip out on the lake on the same day?
An eagle landed!:































Ahem!
Wasn't this supposed to be a blogpost about a GARDEN??

Well then,
back to business!!!


A closer look at the inside of a clematis:







Foxgloves!!:










I love them...I grew my first one in my garden this year and was thrilled!

Then?

A week later, the wind blew it down.

Isn't that how life goes?

Victory and defeat.

Ah, but that makes the victories all the sweeter!

That's okay--I loved the eagle shots!! Awesome!
The inside of the clematis is gorgeous! All of the colors in the petals that I wouldn't have noticed from farther away and the orange bursting from the center--delicious!
Great post! :)

Your photos are lovely.

You should be getting paid big bucks for these photos! Awesome. The eagle is majestic.

Valerie said...

An eagle, wow! I wish I could see one in my garden. I had a huge display of foxgloves in the garden this year and hopefully next year. Instead of ripping them out I could them down to enable new growth. The insects will be pleased.

Beautiful images, one and all but what a thrill to be visited by that Baldie. What a gorgeous bird.
