Willy Nilly Friday 5, Sky Watch Friday, Floral Friday Fotos,
and on Saturday, Saturday's Critters, and I'd Rather B Birdin'

1. Blue Sky (Sky Watch Friday)

Tupelo, Mississippi, USA, May 15, 2019

Warm days with cool nights, blue skies, fluffy white clouds - perfect Spring weather!

2. Gardening

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 17, 2019

My tomatoes are growing taller, but so is the grass and the weeds!
That is a white Rose ('Iceberg') behind the second from right tomato plant. Most of the flowers are faded, but there are still more buds to open. And the purple on the far right is a wildflower, Spiderwort.

'Burpless Beauty' Cucumber

Only time will tell if this was a good idea or not - I planted cucumber seeds in with the tomato plants to let the cucumber vines climb the tomato cages.

And my okra is coming up. I see a few gaps; I will probably plant a few more seeds this weekend.

'Clemson Spineless' Okra

3. Bearded Iris (Floral Friday Fotos)

Bearded Iris gets its name from the Greek word for rainbow, and what a rainbow of colors there are!

.

I have only a few colors, but there are a lot of people who grow hundreds of different colors.

4. Snail (Saturday's Critters)

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 1, 2019

Large critters are easy to find and photograph, but don't overlook the small ones!

Though snails are kind of gross and slimy, I think their shells are pretty. One snail I can tolerate, but if they multiply and start eating my plants, I will not hesitate to declare war on snails!

5. Gray Catbird (I'd Rather B Birdin')

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, April 29, 2019

Gray Catbirds, Dumetella carolinensis, are migratory birds that spend the Winter along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts of North America or in the Caribbean islands and Central America. But in the warm weather months they migrate across the United States and as far north as southern Canada to nest and raise their young.

Have a wonderful weekend!
