A juvenile Black Vulture turned up today at the garbage bins next door. Last year, a whole flock visited, giving us a lot of amusement with their funny, bobbing walk and their pale legs that one writer likened to white tube socks.
Here is a clip from last year.
In contrast to the hulking vulture, a tiny bee visited this Black-Eyed Susan in our yard.
My neighbor's wildflower garden has passed its peak for Alyssum, Calendula and Sweet William Catchfly. The Bachelor Buttons are holding on, though many have gone to seed. Up next in the yard are the Sunflowers, Cosmos and Thunbergia. Summer is going fast.
