Naturally

I was feeling very positive towards nature when I planned this post to highlight some nice pictures I had just taken. But just a few minutes ago when I went to prepare my morning coffee I saw that the black ants had reached a crucial "table." I've been washing my floor with special "anti-ant" cleaner and keeping the sinks clean. We have to do some major plumbing repairs, which our regular plumber can't do, so I didn't have the house "treated" this spring. I don't need the extra aggravation, and work.

But these pictures have been waiting on photobucket... for your viewing pleasure.

Talking about pleasure? This cat seems pretty happy to me. That's the life!


I don't think the donkey is complaining. The local kids do their best to keep him happy.



When I was approaching my house, I saw these birds looking out for me.



And there are still flowers blooming, even though summer heat is hard to avoid.




No, sorry, I'm no expert in the flora here and can't tell you what they're all called.
