hi there. A gorgeous day to walk through, this was an usual garden, because some how we ended up coming in the maintenance entrance, no clue how that happened, be it the GPS or what? Kind of funny. A section with the red bridge was being worked on ... I had to get the hubby to get the shot, he is 6'2 so the height helped. I would have had to go through the fence to get the view. I guess garden maintenance is a constant thing.  I was so lucky to capture this moth (butterfly) checking out the bloom, very cool!! Thank You for stopping by today. Hope you are well. Take Care. Be Well & Be Blessed. Beth ( ;

It is comforting to see the greens! We're frozen in with white.

I think I know why you have so many vultures! They migrate and leave us in winter. I guess frozen meals aren't what they want!
