I have a bit of a mishmash to share today! For starters, here is my new friend. Although the hummingbirds have migrated, their feeder is enjoyed each afternoon by this sweet little butterfly.
This Eastern Comma butterfly prevented my taking apart, cleaning and storing the hummingbird station. It's worth it to enjoy this winged beauty.
I love having cut flowers in the house from early spring until fall's hard frost. These most recent cuttings were snatched before a frost warning a few nights ago. Someone forgot to tell them that it's time for the annuals to begin fading!
Completely unrelated to the nature shots is a product endorsement. I'm likely the last person around to have tried Bar Keepers Friend Foam cleaner. I've used regular Bar Keepers Friend over the years with good results, but never used the foam version. I found it on sale and, on a whim, decided to buy it. I used it on a stubborn sink stain I'd been attacking for quite a while. I used every cleaner I had in the house and many natural concoctions without success. Hurredly, I sprayed Bar Keepers Friend Foam on the troublesome spot and couldn't believe my eyes when it eradicated every bit of it! I highly recommend it...if you aren't already hooked!
How's that for a bit of randomness? 🙂
