and on Saturday, Saturday's Critters, and I'd Rather B Birdin'

Click on photos to see them at their best.

1. Wide Open Spaces (Sky Watch Friday)

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 27, 2020

Some days I have to just get out of the house and drive around a bit to make sure the world is still out there! I stopped my car on a bridge (there was no traffic) to get this photo. It had rained earlier in the day.

2. Butterfly Weed (Wildflower Wednesday)
The 4th Wednesday of each month is Wildflower Wednesday. (It was the 27th this month).

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 28, 2020

Butterfly Weed, Ascepias tuberosa, is the prettiest 'weed' you will ever see! It lives up to its name attracting butterflies, and it is a host plant for the Monarch Butterfly.

3. Garden Update

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 28, 2020

My friend Jan gave me these tomato and pepper plants. The pepper plants had no label on them, and she grew the tomato plants from the seeds of a store-bought tomato. So now I have a bit of mystery in my garden, no-name tomatoes and no-name peppers!

4. Butterfly (Saturday's Critters)

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, May 28, 2020

5. Canada Geese (I'd Rather B Birdin')

Tupelo, Mississippi, USA, May 26, 2020

Have a wonderful day!
