Greetings! Today was such a nice day. I can tell that Fall is coming. The nice thing is....days are a bit cooler and the landscape is still nice and green. It seems as though we have a regular visitor to our bird feeders and bird bath. One day Denise and I were leaving to go somewhere and she noticed the squirrel on the tree. He didn't move. Maybe he thought that we couldn't see him. So I went in and got the camera. For a while there he would come up on our porch.....that's where we keep the bird food. Then Denise put out food for him on the porch. Now she puts out food at the base of the tree (you see in the picture) for the squirrel and some doves that also frequent the feeders. For some reason the doves like to eat off the ground. As of now we have 1 bird house, 2 feeders and a bird bath. It's nice having the visitors.
I don't know if you remember the sunflowers we grew this year. I put some pics on a previous post. Anyways.......once they got so big and started to buckle over....I cut the heads off and the seeds became food. That was nice to be able to do that. We'll probably grow them now for that purpose.
Here are our Cuban Oregano and Garlic plants we got earlier this year when we went to Daytona Florida. As you can see they never made it into the ground or a planter. They are tough plants to thrive where they have. I tried to move them one day and discovered that roots had passed from the pot into the ground. We just left them there. Hope they make it through the winter.
We found a pretty rose bush at Marvin's several months ago. I thought it was the coolest color. It's been slow this year. But when it puts out a bloom.....it's beautiful. This (above photo) is my version of an artistic shot.
Here's another photo of the rose in the bird bath. As you can see we have another vine at the base that has never made it into the ground. It's a sweet potato vine. Nice green and purple colors. 
Of course.....our Alabama bird feeder. We love to see the little Nuthatches sitting amid the food.That's our little yard in a nutshell.
