1. In our little neighborhood Prettyboy watershed is one of our favorite trails for walking. Hubby surprised me going 2 miles round trip on this walk, the trail goes even further up to 5 miles . The sun was not as bright due to the haze from smoke in our area. Birds were not singing much on this day, I did see a Gray Catbird on the trail in front of us.
2. Below I watched a Tiger Swallowtail butterfly landing on our Lantana plant.
On this day, Hubby, Miney and I took our walk on the NCR bike trail in Parkton. I was surprised that the Bee Balm was still blooming.
3. In my back yard, a female Cardinal was preening. The Black Swallowtail butterfly was seen on our Buddleia Butterfly bush.
4. Another section of the NCR bike trail, a walk with Miney and Hubby too.
A larger image of the Monarch Butterfly, I have not seen many of these this summer.
5. In the yard and on my deck the butterflies and birds are enjoying our plants.
6. I am seeing 3 or more Ruby-throated Hummingbirds at my feeders. It seems like I am refilling the feeders more often now. I believe the babies/juveniles are now following the adults to the feeder.
7. A Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly on the Buddleia bush.
8. The American Goldfinches love the thistle sock, below are a male and female enjoying the seeds.

1. The three images below are of my Merlin Back yard birds, I included a few of my bird photos. The Baltimore Oriole, the Blue Jay and the House Wren.
2. My walk with Miney at the Prettyboy watershed. During my walk I tend to hear the same birds in the same areas.
3. Merlin Birds heard on my walk with Miney on the Prettyboy fire road. I do not hear as many birds mid-day as I do early in the morning. My daily walk with Miney on hubby's dialysis days are later.
4. My walk with Miney on the Prettyboy fire road.
The White-breasted Nuthatch is one of my year round back yard birds.
Our deck flowers are looking good, we do have to keep watering them, we keep missing rain in our area. I have Zinnias, Salvia and my favorite Lantana. The hummingbirds and butterflies love all these plants.
