Re: Today in pictures

Some Canadian All Too Short Summer madness...
I bought a few bargain priced ready-planted pots without really knowing what the flowers would turn out to be. Happy to see some Fuschias - I used to call them 'fairy flowers' when I was little, lilies, and bright red geraniums. The colour red attracts hummingbirds. It seems to be working. I keep my feeder filled with fresh syrup for them and every so often I hear a whir of wings. I was lucky enough to have my camera close by, and sat very still for ages as they're quite shy.
