We finally got a beautiful weekend, and I took advantage of
both days. My vegetable / herb
garden needed some help; the constant rain has not been good for anything I
planted this year. I pulled out most of
the tomato plants and tidy up a bit.
This section of the garden is not getting much sun this winter;
all the grown trees in the back garden are hurting the vegetable plants. When I started planting vegetables in this corner of the garden,
it got full sun all morning, now only a couple of hours.
This week at the DragonFly Garden
I photographed another winter visitor to the garden, a Prairie
Warbler. This little guy spends winters
in Florida, the Caribbean and summers in states from Georgia to New England.

This owl nesting box was a Christmas gift from my niece. A screech owl made a nest on a dead palm tree
several years ago, so I’m hoping that it will happen again. Nesting season starts in March.
These bananas were a total surprise, this banana plant was planted in a
container for a long time and last summer planted it on the ground.
This coming weekend the garden is hosting my daughter’s baby
shower, we expect around 30 guests. I
will be spending more time getting everything ready.
