Wow, what a beautiful butterfly!

Willow and Pony, I am glad that your daylily babies are doing well. I really really hope they have some beatiful results!

I was so bummed earlier this spring.... a mouse got into my greenhouse and ate over half of the daylily seeds/seedlings that I had planted :( and then the slugs chewed a bunch of the others. Now I am almost thankful as the weather has been so awful and I am so far behind that it gives me less work to do. Looking for a silver lining! The good news however, is that when I plowed the vegi garden last Sunday, I scoped out my seedling rows down there and I have scapes/buds on at least a couple dozen (probably much more than that, but didn't have time to examine closely) of the seedlings that I had planted last spring. Just imagine... dozens of never before seen babies to enjoy this summer!!! I am doing the happy dance just thinking about it!

Kathy, I think that Mom has a good picture of Phoenix pointing. When she takes the "classic" pointing pose, I seem to never have a camera available. She does lots of dork points though... strikes an instant still pose in any position when she senses something to hunt. This is the best one that I have of a classic point... she was telling me that there was a bird in those reeds... and she was absolutely right.
