That's beautiful and peaceful.  I'm glad you get the wildlife to stop by.

I'm ticked off at my neighbor.  He went and either he, or his hired guy, went and whacked away at my huge hummingbird bush.  Many of the longest branches are gone, and it's misshapen and hideous.  What the ?????#*&(^@!!

Looks like a great place to sit on a hot summer afternoon and drink a glass of tea!

Julles, sorry about your bush, I would be furious.

Lorraine...cute little garden.  I also have a swing by my ponds.  Once a humming bird lite (flite)on my shirt...it had flowers on it.

Julles...sorry about your butterfly bush...

but I kind'a see both sides of the issue.  My Dad hated the Honeysuckle vine growing on the inside of the neighbors chainlink fence.  The runners would grow way out into the lawn on Daddy's side.  He always took the weed whacker to it and shaved it against the fence on his side.  It looked pathic...but he hated it...and he did have the right to chop it.  The neighbor never even mowed his side and their whole yard looked bad.

Very cute garden! 
My bees and butterflies seem to like my blooming mint now the most.
