A Walk around the Garden - December

The garden is winding down for a winter's nap. There are still some blooms, however the cold fronts have zapped some of the flowers. Here is a look at what is happening in the garden this December.



The cooler weather brought a flush of blooms to the Firespike.



I spotted this Rufous hummingbird in the Nandina bush. I was surprised to see two hummingbirds fighting over the feeder.


One Rufous hummingbird decided to stay the winter in our backyard last year. How great would it be to have two this year.



During this busy time of year, hope you find the time to enjoy nature
