I totally forgot that I’d shot this of the cats a few weeks ago. They were watching Mr. Chipmunk scampering around on the patio, and as you can tell by Henry’s tail, it was most exciting for the kittens.

Baby Eastern Box Turtle
I tried twice to move this guy out of harm’s way, but he keeps coming back to my patio. I think Harriet and the cats are about to lose their minds over him!
Raindrops on Spiderweb
There’s another funnel weaver web in my garden. The actual funnel is hidden inside the privacy fence, but judging from the size of the exterior bit, I’m guessing it’s large. The grass spiders are prolific this year, which is good. They aren’t aggressive and they eat a lot of bugs.
Raindrops on Canna Lily
I woke up to rain this morning, and it’s supposed to continue through tomorrow. We were desperately in need of it. It’s the perfect sort of rain for the plants–soft and steady–so hopefully my garden will be happy. I don’t think the cannas minded the dry spell, though. The silly things are at least 6 feet tall and still blooming their fool heads off.
