Managed to catch this little fellow before he got back into the cover of the plants. Due to me having to aim focus and shoot fast it’s turned out to be a blurd rather than a bird 😜.
California Quail (Callipepla californica)

You need to spread your wings if you want to fly.
Yes they were a couple of blooms that got broken in some wind we had a couple of days ago.
I like using cherry tomatoes whilst there is extra work there is also extra reward .. it’s all about taste. 😍

Another cicada pic. Just because their ‘singing’ at the moment makes it feel like my tinnitus volume has been multiplied by an unbelievable degree.

Yellow Admiral (Vanessa itea). Also known by its Māori name, kahukōwhai (meaning "yellow cloak"). Making the most of the suns warmth on our fence.

❣️Thank you Shantha.
Thank you Lilith. Yes I have a number of japanese paper and bamboo fans modelled on designs from that period, that my father bought back from Japan 3/4 of a century ago and their tail feathers look just like them as you say.

The high chroma Ligularia flowers providing an interesting contrast against the laid back soft lavender Hosta flowers in a damp and shady corner of our garden at the moment.
