I had fun torturing the wildlife today! As it gets closer to fall, the spiders have started making more webs in the garden and woods (you have to wave a stick around in front of you as you walk down the path!). But in order for them to show up in photos, they need to be wet. It's been too dry for dew in the mornings, so I get out the hose and mist them, causing the poor little spiders to rush around their webs to see what's going on! These are little guys - the big garden spiders will be around in a few more weeks.
The scarlet runner beans are getting ready to start blooming - these fat buds are just ready to burst!
I love seeing the light come through the leaves of the bean plants, showing all the veins.
Our swallows have been very busy this year - the second hatch is fledging, and some couples are getting ready to lay again! But with all the babies out and flying around, we sure have a great flock. In the early morning, they like to warm their toes on our steel roof, chattering to each other.
