    Two In One

    In between rounds of glorious rain and some hail yesterday, I was on the deck hoping to catch a hummingbird. I noticed these two squirrels at the bottom of the bird feeder. They were feeding on sunflowers knocked out by the birds. The shadow on the left is from a deck post and the ones on the right are leaves from a rose bush. I could just fit the squirrels in the frame.

    I bought this plant at Wal-Mart last Friday at Mountain Home. I am sure they were ordered for Mother's Day. They are also known as Flamingo Flower.
