From the morning cooing of a pair doves until the sundown chirping of the crickets, our patio garden keeps us entertained. Furthermore, this year’s lush growth of butterfly bushes, sunflowers, and tall grasses have provided us with a sense of privacy in which to enjoy our visitors. Plus a bonus, Luca, our family reptile, ensures our time on the patio is bug free.

Our porch gets a great deal of use. This year has been no exception. Our front yard garden has delighted us from our morning coffee and tea until our nightcap. The butterfly bushes and the sunflowers have kept the bees and the butterflies busy as well as entertaining hummingbirds and yellow finches.

The last two days of July brought out an increase in butterfly activity in our gardens. Sitting on the front porch these lepidopterans provided hours of entertainment as they winged from one butterfly bush to another.

Thanks to much needed rain the last two days, our butterfly bushes have flowered. While we were eating lunch on the backyard pad, my wife pointed to a visitor. There swooping overhead was our first butterfly of the season. It is always fun to entertain guests at meal times.
