Squirrel Scare

I was just a little too close

to this squirrel when I snapped this photo.

Mr. Squirrel was angry and chattering away.

I believe he was scared,

yet he also scared me. 

I was afraid he was about to leap

onto my head,

which made me scared as well.

My husband laughed when I told him

I hurried to my car and locked the doors.

Yep, I locked the doors.

As if the angry squirrel was going

to chase me down and open my car doors.

Regardless, it ended up being a good shot

of an a  chattering squirrel.

Salvia

I love the way our salvia plants 

attract the butterflies, hummingbirds, 

and fat, friendly bumble bees.

I don't get too shook up about the bees

 as they keep to themsleves 

as long as I keep to myself.

I can be weeding just inches from them,

but they're all full of nectar and 

happy and fat as a plum.

I enjoy my gardening each summer.

I am hoping Iowa will be seeing 

some warmer weather very soon 

so we get some flowers and vegetables

in the ground. 

Enough of winter!

And what's this about a global warming theory?

Sorry, not seeing it folks.
