Here I am chugging along, sharing photos from June. The photos are from my yard, our walks with Miney on the Prettyboy fire roads. Hubby's treatment is going well, it is something he will have to do for the rest of his life or try for the kidney transplant list which can take up to 5 years.
Click on images for better viewing.
1. June 7th, Miney on the fire road. I hear the Ovenbirds during all my walks, they have a really loud sound.
I noticed on my walks, I hear the same birds in almost the same spot as previous walks. The Worm-eating Warbler is one that seems to stay in an area off of the fire road that is steep hill.
2. We bought some annuals for our deck, below are Honeybells a new plant for me, the Lantana and two different colors of Zinnias. I was happy to see a hummingbird at the Lantana.
"Let the birds of peace, fly around."
3. June 8th, a walk to the lake, we saw lots of Canada Geese and a couple of Double-crested Cormorants.
We have a Spirea bush in our yard, over the years it has grown really big. This year it had lots of pretty blooms.
4. June 10th, Miney decided she wanted to walk through the ferns off to the side of the fire road.
5. June 14th, a couple of the birds heard on my walk were the Hooded Warbler top left and the Pine Warbler top right.
At this time in mid June I was hearing the Cedar Waxwings while I was out on fire road.
6. June 15th, another walk on the local fire road with Miney, at home there was a deer on the neighbors driveway.
7. June 17th, a walk with Miney we saw a lot of Indian Pipe also known as Ghost Pipe. It is not a mushroom but a unique flowering plant. It does get it's nutrients from fungi and thrives in shady wooded areas.
8. My flashback images are from August 2022, a common bird seen year round, in and around my yard is the Tufted Titmouse.
This Tufted Titmouse could be sunning themselves or anting. Both are consider maintenance for their feathers.

Hi Eileen, gorgeous captures. Please give Miney a hug 🫂 🤗 for me. Have a wonder filled weekend.
A "deck"... now that sounds fancy. May I visit? We have an old balcony... Useless as summer still is on vacation...
The Tufted Titmouse looks so cute! Mine today are... ow. Have a happy Saturday!
So many beautiful critters and photos.
Lovely nature captured!
Have a super weekend!
I love the plumage of cedar waxwing. Your walk takes me to your summer from winter
Bless your husband, Miney, and you! I enjoyed seeing the deer and all of your photos, Really. Thank you, Eileen
The Tufted titmouse shot is absolutely my favourite in this post. Although all are lovely critters...including Miney. Good that you have Hummingbirds around your flowers, they must be awesome to watch!
Good luck to hubby and all the best to both of you!
I'll send you a proper comment a little later! 😘
Good Morning, dear Eileen. First... I admire the header with Minnie! And of course all the other lovely captures, especially the birds. Your blooms at the terace are colorful. Yes we need this, I understand very well, I agree.
Further best thoughts and wishes to you and your husband.

Hello, Hope your are doing well. Glad to read your post.
Beautiful series of photos, amazing birds, flowers looks beautiful.
Thanks a lot for hosting. Greetings.
Hi Eileen,
This is a fantastic series of photos.
I love the flowers on your patio.
It's wonderful to walk with Miney.
In June, you still hear lots of birds, but here, hardly any birds anymore, they're molting now.
The cedar waxwing and the crested tit are my favorites.
I wish you a lovely weekend.
Best regards Irma
Hello Eileen,
Miney is always so sweet, and she is a lucky dog. The Merlin app is very useful. I use it too. Your flowers are very beautiful! The spirea has a lovely color.
Take care, and enjoy your weekend!
Nice pics again. You meet so many animals of any kind on your walks. This time I have only one pic with two ducks....although I had an eye on the critters LOL.
Have a good time and all the best
Violetta
Oh, I thought my comment lost in Cyberspace... :)))
