Cats and Trails and Garden Tales
Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
Yesterday in the Garden
I came home yesterday after a very busy week and had a few minutes before I needed to start dinner. So I grabbed my camera and went out to the backyard where I found
my new dahlias in bloom –
fuchsias – the most beautiful of the difficult flowers to spell –
Benji enjoying the catmint –
Anna’s hummingbirds coming to feed –
and I was refreshed.
Isn’t that what hobbies are for?
For Sunday Stills.

Wow – what a photo of the hummingbird.
Thanks so much! I was happy to get some new pictures of them at the feeder! 🙂 🙂
So many beautiful flowers!! ❤️☺️
Thanks! Still a lot of beauties blooming! 🙂
Lovely clear and rich photos, Susanne. I am still jealous of those hummingbirds! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks so much, Pete! I’m thankful for the beauty in my own backyard! And I’m always happy to catch the hummingbirds feeding. 🙂

Thanks so much, Terri! Photography, gardening, birding and cats! Oh! And blogging! That about covers it!! 😀
So beautiful, and LOVE the Hummingbird shots!
Thanks so much, John! I was happy to capture the hummingbirds feeding! 😊
Lovely photos. The dahlia is beautiful, with the white and yellow and the symmetry of flower. And yes on the hobbies sentiment!
Thanks so much! I planted new dahlias last winter and was happy they came up!

Love it! I once had a fuchsia in a hanging basket and surprisingly it did pretty well. But in the central California climate, it eventually meet its demise.
Thanks! And it looks like you have no trouble spelling it! 😄
Well, “truth in blogging”: Spell check is a really handy feature! 😂😂
Glad to hear I’m not alone! I have to look up the spelling of that beautiful flower every.single.time! 😄
Those fuchsias are gorgeous and I had to copy and paste the word so that I didn’t misspell it.
I love fuchsias but I have to look up the spelling every single time! 😊
Beautiful! I love fuschia. I need to get a few for my hard. Dahlias are my absolute favorites
Thank you! I love dahlias too! And the fuschias are easy container plants. ☺
Gorgeous! You have so many talents! 💕C
Aw, thanks so much! You are too kind! 🙂
