Well, I finished moving all my content from the old account to the new one today. Spent yesterday deadheading & cleaning up gardens.

Spring phlox in bloom along the foundation.

One of my very favorite lilies that comes up in my perennial bed. I love the vibrant colors and stamen structure of this bloom.

My fiery-red Asiatic Lilies. They are a delight to see every year, adding a splash of color among the remainder of my perennial bed.

I'm still sorting thru the plethora of #botanicals I stashed away on an external drive.

Getting them into the cloud for sharing.

#Oakleaf #Hydrangea a woody bush-like perennial.

In spring, it blooms a whitish-pink cluster, which turns dark rose in autumn.

Blooms bursting open on the #Buddelia #ButterflyBush.

We have 3 colors growing here, white, pink, & purple. The hummers, moths & butterflies love them.

Took this shot a few years ago with my #CanonEOS & #300mmZoom lens.

My first thought was a large bumble bee, but its movements were like those of a hummer.

Quite an unusual 🤔 find & a delightful surprise #photography #photos #macrophotography #botanicalphotography #bugs #moths #hummers #flowers

It's always lovely to find something interesting in nature, as this large bumblebee was visiting my white lilac bush.

Would you believe me if I told you this was one of my first #photos.

It's a #macro of spring blooms on my Chanticleer Pear trees, abt 12 ft above my head.

I had just gotten my #CanonEOS #T5i & 3 lenses.

Spring time at Coy Mountain Nature Reserve, near Bellaire, Michigan.

Trees beginning to leaf out. It's amazing how tall these hardwoods get.

Hiking in the woods at Coy Mountain (near Bellaire, MI), we stopped for a break to take in the scenery. Captured this wee fella scampering around in the leaf litter. They are quite shy & very quick.

American Robin - a flock of them, maybe 50-100 descended on my pear trees & gobbled up all the berries on their migration south.

An American Robin in Chanticleer Pear trees, migrating flock 50-100 birds in a swarm. They ate all the berries off of 4 mature trees in less than 1/2 hrs and moved on.
