Yup, as I said... give it six months. Have I mentioned lately how much I love anoles? And is that a real Catesetum blooming, or are you faking it? And have you caught any lizards yet?

Yes, my mind does work just like the above... focus, WaterWitchin, FOCUS.

[DirtyCoconuts]

it is a REAL catesetum with really female flowers

i caught one in the bottle trap so far... a tiny but still the curly tail type...I like the fact that it allows me to see it without killing it. same discretion i have with the bb gun

i cannot wait to have too many onions be a problem lol I have the failed watermelon spot which is 2x8...is that better?

[WaterWitchin]

It is better, yes. Plant them all in the middle.

Excellent show DC. Excellent. The spider with the green round patch on the back is amazing. Enjoyed seeing all those pics together.

[Roberta]

I got more than usual number of female flowers on Catasetums this year too... I agree, maybe things were TOO good... the female flowers are intriguing, but if you've seen one... Except for some variation in the amount of color in the petals, they pretty much all look alike.

Along with gorgeous orchids, I love the wildlife!

[MJG]

Nice, DC. You seem to always have multiple beauties in bloom. I love the fauna too.

[DirtyCoconuts]

Thank you thank you thank you
I have a lot of plants so...lol


The egret pic is during the tropical storm, Eta. I went out to check on stuff and saw her standing there and had two thoughts; i want to take this pic; if this bird is just standing out here, it ain’t that bad.
