An evening walk through the yard...

I took the camera for a stroll through the yard at around 7pm this evening, and here is some of what I "saw"...


Okra getting started...

3 shots of gloriosa lily plants coming out everywhere...but still no blooms! They are the thin green things with tendrils...



My secret hideaway...I need to put a bench out here amongst the trees...

I pointed up and got a shot of this quite messy palm tree in the backyard, with clear blue sky peeking through...


Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone!

Floral/Plant life in the wetlands!

Here are the floral/plant pictures from the trip to Wakodahatchee Wetlands! I loved this blue/purple colored iris-looking plant (only one I saw there)...growing smack dap out of the water! There are two pics of two different views of that flower!

Those of you wondering how close we were to those alligators in the previous pics...we were at least a boardwalk level high from the water anyway...but the gators that were out a way...were about 20 feet away at least!














Did I tell you that there are also iguanas and marsh rabbits out there too? I saw one of each, but they were too quick for me to get a pic! The rabbits are especially cute!!!

OK...tomorrow will be the final installment of the views of the whole area (scenery).

Good night!!!
