recently, I wrote about all the caterpillars and the butterflies that emerged and my hope that, as the milkweed has new leaves, another monarch mother might stop by and leave a few eggs…
well, on Thursday, this happened;-)…
I was very excited and after she left, and a bit of searching, made the discovery of at least four eggs…
babies, here we come;-)…

early this morning I discovered a dragonfly in the kitchen… found a container, slid it in and popped it outside… kind of fun to find it and be able to deal with it…
took a walk around the garden and found a few lovely things…
purple flowers on the eggplant… looking forward to some fruit… also love the cute pansies in the background…
and I spotted some blooms on the little iris…
they are likely going to be purple too, lol…
watered all the pots and planters with rain water which also helped with my step count…
sure do appreciate having a few minutes to enjoy the garden first thing in the day…
had a bit of a giggle as I drove through pouring rain on my way home… guess I didn’t need to do that early morning watering…
