Happy Thursday, wishing everyone a great day!
What's prettier than birds and blooms, we have plenty around the yard now. I still have many trip photos to share but I wanted to share my backyard blooms, moon photo and some birds. I hope you enjoy.
The moon on May 26th
Our crazy House Wren controls our yard, he chases away any bird that comes near.
The clematis is blooming nicely.

Our rhododendrons are looking beautiful too.

We picked out some annuals that the hummingbird and maybe the butterflies will like: top left is a Dahlia that reminds me of the red and white peppermints, the red Salvia, bottom left is a new plant for us is called upright Fuchsia and lower right my favorite Lantana.
I enjoy watching the sky and pretty clouds shapes. This photo was taken while walking on our local fire road.
I am thankful for our local nursery, they have a great selection of perennials and annuals.
I am thankful for the pretty flowers.
I am thankful for all your visits and comments.

Good Morning, Eileen. Your yard/flowers are so pretty. The hummingbirds will love your choice of annuals. We had pretty clouds yesterday. Thanks for sharing the beauty from your day.

Oh my word... that is some beauty plus eighty-seven right there!!! YAM xx
House Wrens are such pugnacious little critters. It always amazes me that they will take on a bird of any size.
...yep, lots to be thankful for!
Hello,
Thank you all for the comments!
Gorgeous blooms. And the finches seem to like the sack. Wrens do have a mind of their own. We were rejected this year. They checked out the house and moved on.
Hello Eileen!
Your clematis and the rhododendrons are so beautifully bloomed!
The House Wrens is such a beautiful bird!
Hope yo see soon,in your yard your beloved hummingbirds!
Thank you for sharing this beauty from your yard!
Have a happy Thursday!

Hello Eileen,
We live in the same world, only with a few thousand miles apart, so I can also say that I am grateful for these beautiful pictures. Thank you so much!
Enjoy your day!
Loved this post Eileen . . .
Beautiful!
Saving the quotes, I will be using this one pronto!

Hello,
beautiful images of moon and clouds and flowers...but I am captured by your Wren!
They are so funny birds...so tiny and so brisk!
Have a good day!
Beautiful flowers. I remember how Lady Bird urged everyone to plant a bush or a shrub!
I think I may have a crazy house wren in my bird house, which means with babies probably. I've seen it only a couple of times but hear her a lot! Lovely as always!
Beautiful! Love the Clematis
Have a wonderful day!
Clematis are AMAZING. Our neighbor has one and at first I thought it was an artificial flower. LOL
Our wrens are pretty bossy too but I do enjoy watching them. Beautiful flowers, Eileen. I haven't seen the Fuchsia either. I have some Lantana planted in a pot too with some Zinnias. Summer colors are just beautiful and so eye-catching.
Awesome pics.
You have a beautiful yard, thanks for sharing it with us.
Thank you for being such a bright spot!!!
Thanks for all of the color today.
:)
the earth does laugh in flowers and all these photos make me smile with joy
Stunning shots! What beautiful flowers and birds...you have a lovely yard!
Such lovely shots, I so enjoyed your blooms
Hello Eileen,
Wonderful birds and flowers! I love your clematis and rhododendron. They are all so nice.
Have a nice evening.
Absolutely breathtaking! Thank you for sharing! I've enjoyed the return of the cardinal to your yard! Have a wonderful weekend1
Your flowers are beautiful, Eileen!
"Three things can not be long hidden: the sun, the moon and the truth."
GASP!! SO true.
Beautiful blooms!
Beautiful flowers. Dahlias are a favorite. I don't see many rhododendrons around here. Loved seeing them when I lived in North Carolina. Along with azaleas. That city turns into a flower in the spring. I like cloud shapes, too.
Fantastic collection Eileen.
Cute that you have the wren in charge of security! lol Thanks for linking up today. You have some beautiful flower shots, here.
Beautiful flowers..love the quotes..Little Jenny Wren is adorable!!
Beautiful blooms. LOVE the picture of the wren.
That house wren looks intense. :)
Beautiful blooms!
What a lovely series of shots. That moon though - wow!
What a fantastic photo of the House Wren. A beautiful bird. And the garden looks lovely, Eileen, I hope you are enjoying the summer.

The Buddha saying got my attention. We need truth in the age of alternative facts.
Wow, spectacular moon shot, I love the detail. I love the quote about the Earth laughing in flowers. And your flowers are spectacular.
I doubt I quit blogging. I get too much satisfaction out of it.
Wonderful post, Eileen, pretty flowers, very nice moon and amazing sky.
Happy weekend!
Such beauty all around us. Have a wonderful weekend.
loved to see the wren. But not nice of him to chase all other birds away :)
So much to be thankful for, and we should all take time to reflect on this.
Great to see the birds and the blooms.
Enjoy the up-coming weekend.
All the best Jan
Beautiful :-)
Love that moon, LOL about the bossy wren, and beautiful sky shot! Have a great weekend.
Eileen - sometimes the daily world around us just trumps our reports on our vacations … we are compelled to share the beauty that is just outside the sliding glass door. For one, I am so glad you shared these images. All wonderful! Especially the clematis.
You always get the most amazing moon shots and I enjoyed everything else as well ! ( as usual :)
Yep EIleen, all us little Wrens are a little bit crazy! Never mess with a house wren on a mission haha. I love your wonderful photo of your wren, you back yard looks a wonderful picture at the moment too.
