It was a beautiful autumn morning for a walk through Mine Falls Park in Nashua, NH. (A reminder for all of us that change is beautiful!)

There's a Moon Flower #bloominginmygardennow.

Happy Belated National Hummingbird Day! While it was officially yesterday, every day they're in my garden is a celebration. Here's one enjoying the Cardinalis Lobelia in my garden.

I see the most magnificent acts of nature when doing mundane chores in my garden. Today, while deadheading daylilies, I watched this bee flutter from flower to flower.

Any bird nerds here who know who these feathers are from? I'm in southern NH.
I found them early today in my garden. The striped one has an iridescent gold tip that didn't photograph as beautifully as it appeared in the sun. Perhaps a wild turkey (seen in my 'hood) or red-tailed hawk?
