We wanted to share a few pics from our recent harvests as well as some of the critters in our "jungle". I say jungle cause many of our plants are reaching their zenith now as summer is winding down. I found 3 tree frogs in among the raspberry plants as well as in the purple pole beans. The tree frogs remind me of the little frogs found in the rain forests.
There was also lots of activity from a couple of humming birds so I got out the zoom lens and took several pics from the deck. Enjoy the pics!
