You have me thinking I need to buy a bird-bath for our residents. I love your photos and especially your header. It really is beautiful. Wicker belongs in a garden, I think. It really adds a touch of comfort.

That gazebo really is a lovely garden getaway...<br /><br />Those chipmunks crack me up -- reminds me of a hamster I had growing up, always stuffing his little cheek pockets with as much food as possible, only to "spit it up" somewhere for safe keeping. So cute!<br /><br />Can't wait to host you guys on Saturday, very excited for you to see the house (and the kitties!)<br /><br />xo CassieCassiehttp://www.beetandbaguette.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-91440679270704032662014-05-08T03:19:38.192-04:002014-05-08T03:19:38.192-04:00Your garden is looking so wonderful Mary.

Those pesky greys are so clever and always find a way to outwit the anti squirrel feeders but, aha he says, I have discovered a feeder that the blighters haven't conquered. It fits onto your window with suction cups. We have a neat Perspex bird house shaped version that the birds adore and the "Squizzers" haven't even given it a second glance!!!!Mr Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08570356924117694493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-69613108512211099602014-05-07T21:58:34.509-04:002014-05-07T21:58:34.509-04:00Mary, it makes me smile to read about your garden ...Mary, it makes me smile to read about your garden and see these photos. ;-)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873375271470225199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-71535857334566770462014-05-07T11:58:25.764-04:002014-05-07T11:58:25.764-04:00Oh Mary, I think that too when I think of moving i...Oh Mary, I think that too when I think of moving into a condo. How we would miss our yards and gardens and the wild life there. We are discovering two nests of squirrels in our big tree and young squirrels chasing each other all over the tree. It is fun, but I agree they do love the bird food from those squirrel proof feeders. Ha!<br />Love your flowers in the header. And l just love seeing the chair where I can picture you enjoy nature time and lunch time. Oh so peaceful!l The photo with the birdbath is lovely with the new birdbath and the little path that you can dream takes you to enchantment in the woods.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-18513923773220724382014-05-07T10:58:58.460-04:002014-05-07T10:58:58.460-04:00Hi Mary, your garden is perfect!

Today we finally had some sunshine and in the early evening I was able to put up some geraniums and my new Snowball bush. We sat and ate our dinner on the deck and finally had to concede that 59 degrees was not warm enough to stay out very long. Maybe tomorrow will be warmer.JoAnn ( Scene Through My Eyes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12621061028973446378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-27387643823440826782014-05-06T18:41:31.650-04:002014-05-06T18:41:31.650-04:00How lovely to read of the goings-on in your garden...How lovely to read of the goings-on in your garden.

Delightfully shabby chic and, with its designer cushions, is surely the perfect spot for relaxing in the garden with a book.<br /><br />We love garden sheds as they are usually such intriguing places. People do get up to all sorts in them. But, they are best when they can be considered to be a garden bothy where one can make a cup of tea, shelter from any inclement weather and enjoy a cosy afternoon nap.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.com
