Life & gardens: make them beautiful

GrammaChar said:Oh, Joanna - careful what you wish for. My daughter from Boston was visiting last week and the heat was making her miserable. And it's not even HOT yet! I don't use that word until it gets over 100.

Okay, I'm staying here.

That is an incredible lizard photo! Is it a native species or an invader?

It is an invasive species, but been around so long it is here to stay and the most common lizard to see. The brown anole (Anolis sagrei) native to Cuba and Bahamas. My photo is a male, they are much larger than the females.

Hardworking bee, stayed still enough for me to get a good shot. Bees love this Longan tree, lots of blooms.

The rhododendron is abuzz with bumblebees (or maybe carpenter bees, I can't tell the difference)

Sorry for the low resolution, using my phone's camera.
