Purple and yellow wildflowers border the pond at one of my favouite resting spots.
These tiny flowers are growing on a bush in my front yard. I don't know what they're called but no doubt somebody out here does. I doubt that the bee cares.
A tiny damselfly darts around from plant to plant by my local pond.
Despite my black thumb, these white flowers are growing in my back yard.
These lovely purple Clematis are seen between the slats in the deck railing at Frank's place.
A lovely Mourning Dove perches on my plum tree in the back yard. They're not the brightest birds in the collective flock, but they sure are beautiful.
These are a couple of blossoms on my rose bush - a birthday or Mother's Day gift from my younger son last year. Frank teases me that one day, I'll post my photos as usual, and he'll speak up to say that one of them was actually one that he snapped. This may well be one of those. We've both photographed this rose bush a few times with my camera.
These lovelies are growing wild around the pond.
A skein of beautiful Canada geese in flight. 
A brilliant but short-lived poppy which grew in Frank's back yard.
His garden also had a profusion of peonies earlier this season.I won't have any more posts scheduled in advance and I'm not sure just when we'll return from the cottage. This means that the Posts of the Week will suffer yet again. I'm sorry about that but I expect it will be off and on during the course of the summer. Thanks for your understanding. And thanks for joining me on my walks. I'll catch up with all of you shortly after my return.
