| I find this passalong Pavonia consistently charming. |
I don't have much to say today.

| Didn't see the butterfly that laid the egg for this guy. Fortunately my observation was not key to the process. |
I did want to share a few recent images from the garden.

| Cedar waxwings stuck around to fill up on loquats before heading north. |
Intermittent rains both watered and kept the heat at bay through the end of April.
Plants and pollinators alike are happy about that.

| Pollinators of every stripe have been happy to share the loquat bounty. |
So am I.

My oak pollen "problem" is over for another year, though other trees continue their courtship dances in and on the wind.
I am able to enjoy my gardens from the other side of the windows again.
Here's to time spent outside with no more than the usual set of possible consequences.

| Pipevine Swallowtail (Battus philenor) visits Lantana. |
Fare thee well, April, here's looking forward to May!
