We are so glad you stopped to visit. We've just been informed that these are the "Dog Days of Summer". Why would that be? Our preference is to have it much cooler.
Certainly our mistress doesn't seem to enjoy it. She has been lamenting that the dry weather and the heat have caused all the lovely flowers to wilt.
There are a few lilies and garden phlox left to make a show.
Woody Woodpecker has been spending more time in the shade. He comes early in the day before the sun gets too hot or later towards evening.
The tomato horn worm decided the heat was too much and left the garden. His departure certainly was appreciated.
Madam Butterfly however doesn't seem to be in the least put out by the sticky temperatures. She continues to enjoy her afternoon's fragrant feast.
Well we hope you enjoyed your time here. Please take a tip from us. Find a shady spot to rest during these "Dog Days of Summer".
Have a lovely week.
Hugs from all of us at Harmony Hills!
