Livi spotted 3 of these little guys outside this morning. I got the camera and she got the field guide. We hadn't seen these fellows before but are pretty sure they are baby barn swallows. Hope they come back so we can get a better look!
Consider the birds!
Nineteen of this beauties decorate the front and side of our yard. We left two giant hydrangeas back in California and I missed them. This were planted two summers ago but this is the first time they are really blooming like crazy...thanks God for all the Summer storms!
Saturday afternoon it poured rain. I mean poured in the way that only happens in Colorado; sheets and sheets of wet. Before it started, I had noticed a bunch of sunflowers growing up in the field behind our fence where a tree orchard use to be. I wanted those flowers! After the rain, I took Olivia and we tromped through the prickly weeds and mud to gather our prize.
