Thank you, I am honored to be the official noticer around here. I spy with my little eye a lot of other nature spies here, which is amazing to see. Something that filled me with joy outside today was the wet grass in the morning, lush and verdant, it felt so good to walk in it after more than a month of dryness. I am grateful for the rain for our plants! Wishing everyone a great day!

I love it when subtle changes bring forth astonishment and a little smile. This can go on all day. They are blessings from our creator. I have something I want to share but may have to send it another way. We shall see!

I got the photos, thank you for sharing! The snapdragon pods are super cute, in an eerie sort of way. I've never seen them before, now I'm in love with them.

Thank you for loving it! We hope you are having a pleasant, if not exciting, summer as well.

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your observations. :) Here, it's different; the sun is too intense, washes out everything, but a cloud in the sky (as rare as it is) softens the light, and brightens the day. Most things are dry by now, but the palo verde tree, green all over, even its limbs, trunk and branches, adds a splash of green to my backyard.

A storm in just rolling in, literally, as I write this. Csermely and I have been watering select plants every day in the garden, as the sun is often intense here too. The smell of petrichor is already coming in through the open windows. Your landscape is very different than here, but lovely all the same!!

Love this. Today I noticed the wild raspberries beginning to ripen by my house and I felt glad being in the middle of summer. My daughter loved them and seeing them reminded me of so many summer's past eating them at my grandparent's house in the country.

Growing up we had loads of blackberries out at my grandparent's home in Wisconsin, they were lovely at the time, and still many decades later, a sweet memory (with lots of vanilla ice cream!). Enjoy your wild raspberries, and all the memories that will come with them.

Thank you Cheryl. Blackberries & vanilla ice cream sound like a perfect pairing. I might have to try that. 😊
