“The caged bird sings with a fearful trill,
of things unknown, but longed for still,
and his tune is heard on the distant hill,
for the caged bird sings of freedom.”

This image is okay but I'm still trying for a really good closeup of a jumping spider in my garden. I keep spooking them with my lens before I can get close. The good news is that they really seem to like hanging out on my zinnias, presumably because of all the hidey-holes, so I know where to find them. This one has really set up shop on this zinnia. I didn't even notice the web until I went to edit.

No use in hiding Mr/Ms Grasshopper. I know you're the one that's been nibbling on my flowers. Lucky for you I have plenty to spare.

Thank you! The color is why I noticed in the first place. I don't think I've seen one that was that golden before but it was also accentuated by the morning light. Now, if I could just train them to stop eating the fresh Cosmos blooms and go for the old blooms that I'd deadhead anyway🤷♂️

Lovely photos! That blue on the balloon flowers is especially beautiful.

Wonderful photo! Such pretty birds.Would love to get a photo of a quail someday. Looks like it's been rooting around in something.
Ran into one of the locals yesterday perched on a favored branch on a favored tree.
