Visitors

There's always something going on in my little backyard, and as you know, I quite enjoy the comings and goings of our little visitors.

The White Cabbage Butterflies are regular visitors. 

While I wish we'd see a few different butterflies, I'm always happy to see these guys flitting about.

The raspberries have been a popular destination for a variety of pollinators including this Mud Dauber and his Bumble bee friend

We've had quite a few paper wasps too.. but thankfully they haven't been aggressive or bothersome.

Be careful when you lean into smell the roses

You never know who you're going to find in there (in this case, a yellow sac spider.)

And speaking of spiders

This fuzzy little jumping spider found a comfy spot under the mailbox.

And I didn't actually get to meet this last visitor

 But he left me his shell to let me know he stopped by. He and all his other Cicada friends have been spending the last few weeks serenading us. Sometimes there's so many of them out there, it sounds like there are rattlesnakes in the trees!
