Garden Pictures, Baby Robin, Trumpet Vine, Cardinal Flower, Turnip

Young Baby Robin in training and in hiding among grape vines and leaves, 2010
Better contextual view. Picture taken from below because of the overhang of leaves aiding the feathered camouflage.

This is the first year for this Cardinal Flower Arrangement with Bee Balm in between, Lilies and white-flowered Catnip in background, 2011
Looking into canopy of Squash Blossoms & Zucchini Blossoms, 2011. I feel shrunken.
Orange Trumpet Vine Creeper, 2011

Ants love this. At least a dozen around every flower cluster and rest crawling over every other inch.

My photographer son took all 2011 pictures and did a good job capturing these images.
