Here are some of my favorite things this summer. I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do. (My DH took these pix.)
A tiny brown bird makes its nest on the beams of our honeysuckle trellis each year.
This is the first year in the seven years we lived at this place that more than one hydrangea has bloomed. I think they are gorgeous!
We planted scarlet runner beans to attract more hummingbirds. In the meantime, we have fallen in love with their beautiful orange blossoms. This won't be the last time we plant these!
Hope everyone's summer is going great!

Such beautiful pictures! Your husband should send some of his pictures in to contest. Thanks for sharing. Marly

What are cardinal flowers? They sound pretty.
